Answer:
D. (x – 3)^2 = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume you want an equivalent to x^2 -6x = 8.
We can complete the square by adding the square of half the x-coefficient to both sides of the equation.
x^2 -6x +(-6/2)^2 = 8 +(-6/2)^2
(x -3)^2 = 17 . . . . simplify
Hey there!
b^2 - 5b + 3
= -3^2 - 5(-3) + 3
= -9 - (-15) + 3
= -9 + 15 + 3
= 6 + 3
= 9
