Answer:
"complete the square" to put in vertex form
Step-by-step explanation:
It may be helpful to consider the square of a binomial:
(x +a)² = x² +2ax +a²
The expression x² +x +1 is in the standard form of the expression on the right above. Comparing the coefficients of x, we see ...
2a = 1
a = 1/2
That means we can write ...
(x +1/2)² = x² +x +1/4
But we need x² +x +1, so we need to add 3/4 to the binomial square in order to make the expressions equal:

_____
Another way to consider this is ...
x² +bx +c
= x² +2(b/2)x +(b/2)² +c -(b/2)² . . . . . . rewrite bx, add and subtract (b/2)²*
= (x +b/2)² +(c -(b/2)²)
for b=1, c=1, this becomes ...
x² +x +1 = (x +1/2)² +(1 -(1/2)²)
= (x +1/2)² +3/4
_____
* This process, "rewrite bx, add and subtract (b/2)²," is called "completing the square"—especially when written as (x-h)² +k, a parabola with vertex (h, k).

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>
x - 2y = 12
5x + 3y = -44
<u>Step 2: Rewrite Systems</u>
x - 2y = 12
- [Multiplication Property of Equality] Multiply everything by -5: -5x + 10y = -60
<u>Step 3: Redefine Systems</u>
-5x + 10y = -60
5x + 3y = -44
<u>Step 4: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
<em>Elimination</em>
- Combine 2 equations: 13y = -104
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide 13 on both sides: y = -8
<u>Step 5: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Define original equation: x - 2y = 12
- Substitute in <em>y</em>: x - 2(-8) = 12
- Multiply: x + 16 = 12
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 16 on both sides: x = -4
