Since we want it in the form: (x - a)², let's first expand (x - a)² and then equate for the coefficients.
(x - a)² = x² - 2ax + a²
x² + 4x - 15 = x² - 2ax + a²
Now, let's focus on the middle term.
4x = -2ax
4 = -2a
a = -2
Thus, we know that a = -2
Then, we can say (x + 2)² = x² + 4x - 15
x² + 4x + 4 = x² + 4x - 15
Thus, 19 units are needed in order to complete the square to produce:
(x + 2)²

Step-by-step explanation:
Mean:
a) 1+4+2+1 = 8/4=4
b)1+5+2+1 = 9/4= 2.25 (round to the nearest whole number = 2)
c) 1+5+1+0 = 7/4 = 1.75 (round to the nearest whole number = 2)
d) 1+4+1+0 = 6/4 = 1.5 (round to the nearest whole number = 2)
