Solve x2 + 8x − 3 = 0 using the completing-the-square method.

lisabon 2012 [21]

$(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2\\------------------\\\\x^2+8x-3=0\ \ \ |add\ 3\ to\ both\ sides\\\\x^2+2x\cdot4=3\ \ \ |add\ 4^2\ to\ both\ sides\\\\x^2+2x\cdot4+4^2=3+4^2\\\\(x+4)^2=3+16\\\\(x+4)^2=19\iff x+4=-\sqrt{19}\ or\ x+4=\sqrt{19}\\|subtract\ 4\ from\ both\ sides\\\\\boxed{x=-4-\sqrt{19}\ or\ x=-4+\sqrt{19}}$
