Answer:
s = - 1 ±
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
s² + 2s - 6 = 0 ( add 6 to both sides )
s² + 2s = 6
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the s- term )² to both sides
s² + 2(1)s + 1 = 6 + 1
(s + 1)² = 7 ( take the square root of both sides )
s + 1 = ± ( subtract 1 from both sides )
s = - 1 ±
Thus
s = - 1 - , s = - 1 +
$=(a^2-10a)-(b^2+6b) +16$
$=[(a^2-2(5)a+25)-25]-[(b^2+2(3)b+9)-9]+16$
$=(a-5)^2-25-(b+3)^2+9+16$
$=(a-5)^2-(b+3)^2$
Yes, 13 is the remainder.
