Answer: Add 9 to both sides to complete the square

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the number you need to add to complete the square is (b/2)^2. In this case, b = -6, so:

(b/2)^2 = (-6/2)^2 = (-3)^2 = 9.

(After adding 9 to both sides, you will get x^2 - 6x + 9 = 14 which can be factored to (x - 3)^2 = 14)

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer: x = 6

Step-by-step explanation: If you take 88.56 + 5x = 19.76x, an equation, you should first rearrange the variables to the left side of the equation: 5x - 19.76x = -88.56.

Next, you should combine your like terms. So, -14.76 = -88.56.

Then, divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of variable. So, x = -88.56 / -14.76./

Lastly, calculate. Determine the sign for multiplication or division, so x = 88.56 / 14.76. Multiply both the numerator and denominator with the same integer. So, x = 8856 / 1476. Cross out the common factor, then you get your answer of x = 6
