Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

So, let's say that we have the following equation:

x^2+bx=0

And we want to complete the square.

What we need to do is to divide the coefficient of x by half. Square that. Then add that number to both sides.

The answer that reflects this is choice D.

For instance if we have:

x^2+4x=0

Divide 4 by 2 and then square it.

4/2 is 2. 2²=4. Add 4 to both sides. Thus:  

(x^2+4x)+4=0+4

And now, we can complete the square:

(x+2)^2=4

Answer:
Y= -4 :)

Steps:
Apply rule
-y + 3 = 7
Subtract 3 from both sides
-y + 3 - 3 = 7 - 3
Simplify
-y = 4
Divide both sides by -1
-y/-1 = 4/-1
