5.5 as a fraction is 11/2
5x = 4y - 3
Standard form is Ax + By = C, so first subtract 4y to both sides:
5x - 4y = -3
To complete the square:
we take the coefficient ox "x" (which in this problem is -20)
we divide it by 2
square that number
then add it to both sides of the equation
-20 / 2 = -10
-10^2 = 100
then we add 100 to both sides of the equation:
x^2 -20x
x^2 -20x +100 = 100
******************************************************
To get the roots of the equation, we take the square root of both sides:
(x -10) * (x-10) = 10
(x-10) = square root (10)
x-10 =
