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
Answer:
1. x² + 3x - 5 = 0
2. x² - x = 3 x + 7
4. 7x² + 14x = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
A Quadratic equation takes the form;
ax² + bx + c = 0
a, b, c are constants and a cannot be 0.
Options 1 fits this;
x² + 3x - 5 = 0
Option 2 fits this as well;
x² - x = 3 x + 7
x² -x - 3x - 7 = 0
x² - 4x - 7 = 0
Option 4 fits this as well if c = 0.
7x² + 14x + 0 = 0
