I guess so, no wait no it’s not jk lol
For this case, what we must do is fill squares in all the expressions until we find the correct result.
We have then:
x2 + y2 − 4x + 12y − 20 = 0 x2 + y2 − 4x + 12y = 20
x2 − 4x + y2 + 12y = 20
x2 − 4x + (12/2)^2 + y2 + 12y + (-4/2)^2 = 20 + (12/2)^2 + (-4/2)^2
x2 − 4x + (6)^2 + y2 + 12y + (-2)^2 = 20 + (6)^2 + (-2)^2
x2 − 4x + 36 + y2 + 12y + 4 = 20 + 36 + 4
(x − 2)2 + (y + 6)2 = 60
3x2 + 3y2 + 12x + 18y − 15 = 0
x2 + y2 + 4x + 6y − 5 = 0
x2 + y2 + 4x + 6y = 5
x2 + 4x + (4/2)^2 + y2 + 6y + (6/2)^2 = 5 + (4/2)^2 + (6/2)^2
x2 + 4x + (2)^2 + y2 + 6y + (3)^2 = 5 + (2)^2 + (3)^2
x2 + 4x + 4 + y2 + 6y + 9 = 5 + 4 + 9
(x + 2)2 + (y + 3)2 = 18
2x2 + 2y2 − 24x − 16y − 8 = 0
x2 + y2 − 12x − 8y − 4 = 0
x2 + y2 − 12x − 8y = 4
x2 − 12x + (-12/2)^2 + y2 − 8y + (-8/2)^2 = 4 + (-12/2)^2 + (-8/2)^2
x2 − 12x + (-6)^2 + y2 − 8y + (-4)^2 = 4 + (-6)^2 + (-4)^2
x2 − 12x + 36 + y2 − 8y + 16 = 4 + 36 + 16
(x − 6)2 + (y − 4)2 = 56
x2 + y2 + 2x − 12y − 9 = 0
x2 + y2 + 2x - 12y = 9
x2 + 2x + y2 - 12y = 9
x2 + 2x + (2/2)^2 + y2 - 12y + (-12/2)^2 = 9 + (2/2)^2 + (-12/2)^2
x2 + 2x + (1)^2 + y2 - 12y + (-6)^2 = 9 + (1)^2 + (-6)^2
x2 + 2x + 1 + y2 - 12y + 36 = 9 + 1 + 36
(x + 1)2 + (y − 6)2 = 46
Answer:
12x + 4x + 20
4(3x + x + 5)
4(4x+5)
