Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
p = 1.5 and q = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Expand the right side then compare the coefficients of like terms on both sides, that is
4(x + p)² - q ← expand (x + p)² using FOIL
= 4(x² + 2px + p²) - q ← distribute parenthesis
= 4x² + 8px + 4p² - q
Comparing coefficients of like terms on both sides
8p = 12 ( coefficients of x- terms ) ← divide both sides by 8
p = 1.5
4p² - q = 0 ( constant terms ), that is
4(1.5)² - q = 0
9 - q = 0 ( subtract 9 from both sides )
- q = - 9 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
q = 9
