Since we want it in the form: (x - a)², let's first expand (x - a)² and then equate for the coefficients.
(x - a)² = x² - 2ax + a²
x² + 4x - 15 = x² - 2ax + a²
Now, let's focus on the middle term.
4x = -2ax
4 = -2a
a = -2
Thus, we know that a = -2
Then, we can say (x + 2)² = x² + 4x - 15
x² + 4x + 4 = x² + 4x - 15
Thus, 19 units are needed in order to complete the square to produce:
(x + 2)²
It is the last one.
A pre-image is the original before another shape is created from it, either dilated, translated, reflected, or rotated.

Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to determine the percentage of defects of shoes for brand A
Percentage of shoes that have defect = (5/600) x 100 = 0.83%
shoes that would have defects when 2500 shoes are manufactured = 0.83% x 2500 = 0.0083 x 2500 = 20.75
rounding off to the nearest whole number gives 21 shoes
