Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To complete the square, we first have to get our equation into form.
First we add 16x to both sides:
And now we subtract 62 from both sides.
We now have to add to both sides of the equation. b is 16, so this value becomes
.
We can now write the left side of the equation as a perfect square. We know that x+8 will be the solution because and
.
We can now take the square root of both sides.
We can now isolate x on one side by subtracting 8 from both sides.
So our solutions are
