Step-by-step explanation:

$3 {x}^{2} + 12x = 15 \\ 3 ({x}^{2} + 4x) = 15 \\ {x}^{2} + 4x = 5 \\ {x}^{2} + 4x = 5 \\ {x}^{2} + 4x + 4 = 5 + 4 \\ {x}^{2} + 4x + 4 = 9 \\ {x}^{2} + 4x + {2}^{2} = {3}^{2} \\ \red{ \bold{ (x + 2)^{2} = {3}^{2}}} \\$

See step-by-step explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first question, you simply put an EMPTY circle above 2 and draw an arrow from it all the way down to -3. The reason why we put an empty circle is because there is no equal sign below it.

For the second question, you put a FILLED circle above 4 and draw an arrow from it all the way down to -3. The reason why we use a filled circle is because x is less than OR equal to 4.
