This would result that it would be passing through "ST and PQ."

Hope this help's.

Solve each quadratic equation by completing the square. Give exact answers--no decimals.

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

$x_1 = -2 + 2i\\\\x_2 = -2 -2i$

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem we have the equation of the following quadratic equation and we want to solve it using the method of square completion:

$7x ^ 2 + 28x +56 = 0$

The steps are shown below:

For any equation of the form: $ax ^ 2 + bx + c = 0$

1. If the coefficient a is different from 1, then take a as a common factor.

In this case $a = 7$ . Then:

$7(x ^ 2 + 4x) = -56$

2. Take the coefficient b that accompanies the variable x. In this case the coefficient is 4. Then, divide by 2 and the result squared it.

We have:

$\frac{4}{2} = 2\\\\(\frac{4}{2})^2 = 4$

3. Add the term obtained in the previous step on both sides of equality, remember to multiply by the common factor $a = 7$ :

$7(x ^ 2 + 4x + 4) = -56 + 7(4)$

4. Factor the resulting expression, and you will get:

$7(x + 2) ^ 2 = -28$

Now solve the equation:

Note that the term $7(x + 2) ^ 2$ is always $> 0$ therefore it can not be equal to -28.

The equation has no solution in real numbers.

In the same way we can find the complex roots:

$7(x+2)^2 = -28\\\\(x+2)^2 = -\frac{28}{7}\\\\x+2 = \sqrt{-\frac{28}{7}}\\\\x = -2 + \sqrt{-4}\\\\x = -2 + 2\sqrt{-1}\\\\x_1 = -2 + 2i\\\\x_2 = -2 -2i$
