ANSWER

C. Factoring a perfect square trinomial.

EXPLANATION

The first step shown is:

{x}^{2}  +  \frac{b}{a}x + ( \frac{b}{2a} )^{2}  =  -  \frac{c}{a} + ( \frac{b}{2a} )^{2}

Observe that the left hand side is a perfect square trinomial.

In other words, the left hand side is of the form,

{m}^{2}  + 2mn +  {n}^{2}

which can be factored as:

{m}^{2}  + 2mn +  {n}^{2}  =  {(m + n)}^{2}

When we factor the perfect square trinomial on the left hand side, we obtain:

( x  + \frac{b}{2a} )^{2}  =  -  \frac{c}{a} + ( \frac{b}{2a} )^{2}

The correct answer is C

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

  (c)  y-2 = -4(x-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope equation of a line is ...

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . line through point (h, k) with slope m

For (h, k) = (3, 2), and m = -4, the equation of the line is ...

  y -2 = -4(x -3)
