Answer:

We will add 3 to each side of the equation

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 − 8x + 13 = 0

We want to complete the square

We will subtract 13 from each side of the equation

x^2 -8x +13 -13 = 0 -13

x^2 -8x = -13

Then take the coefficient of x

-8

Divide by 2

-8/2 = -4

Square it

(-4)^2 = 16

Add this to each side

x^2 -8x +16 = -13+16

( x-4) ^2 = 3

The sum of subtracting 13 and adding 16 is adding 3
