So you need to come up with a perfect square that works for the x coefficients.
like.. (2x + 2)^2
(2x+2)(2x+2) = 4x^2 + 8x + 4
Compare this to the equation given. Our perfect square has +4 instead of +23. The difference is: 23 - 4 = 19

I'm going to assume the given equation equals zero..

So, If we add subtract 19 from both sides of the equation we get the perfect square.

4x^2 + 8x + 23 - 19 = 0 - 19
4x^2 + 8x + 4 = - 19
complete the square and move 19 over..
(2x+2)^2 + 19 = 0
factor the 2 out becomes 2^2 = 4
ANSWER: 4(x+1)^2 + 19 = 0

for a short cut, the standard equation
ax^2 + bx + c = 0 becomes a(x - h)^2 + k = 0
Where "a, b, c" are the same and ..
h = -b/(2a)
k = c - b^2/(4a)

Vertex = (h, k)
this will be a minimum point when "a" is positive upward facing parabola and a maximum point when "a" is negative downward facing parabola.

Step-by-step explanation:

4(2)² - 4 =

4(4) - 4 = 12

3(2)² - 3(4)

Goshia [24]

Answer:

628

Step-by-step explanation:

Deposit means money is going into the bank so add 129 onto 499

(b) writing a cheque means money is coming out of the bank so subtract 24 from your previous answer.

    628 - 24 = 604

(c) again, this money is coming out so take 151 away from 604

(d) round 604 to the nearest hundred

     (it's between 600 and 610 but which is it closest to?)
