Answer:

B. 36

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation in question is not well written. Let the equation be;

x²+12x+5 = 0

In order to know what number should be added to both sides of the equation, we will take the square of the half of coefficient of x as shown;

Coefficient of x = 12

Half of 12 = 1/2(12) = 6

Square of 6 = 6² = 36

Hence the required number to add to both sides of the equation by completing the square method is 36
