The constant that can be added to - 3x to form a perfect square trinomial is
The given expression is
- 3x
To form a perfect square trinomial
The given expression is
- 3x
first we have to add a constant term with it
- 3x + z
By comparing the given expression and the perfect square trinomial
a = x
Similarly
-2ab = 3x
where know a =x
Then,
-2b = 3
b = -3/2
Similarly
= z
9/4 = z
Convert the simple fraction to mixed fraction
9/4 =
Hence, the constant that can be added to - 3x to form a perfect square trinomial is
