Answer:
On the first one, they took half of the original number then added it to the original to get the sides of the bigger shape.

Answer:
D. (x – 3)^2 = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume you want an equivalent to x^2 -6x = 8.
We can complete the square by adding the square of half the x-coefficient to both sides of the equation.
x^2 -6x +(-6/2)^2 = 8 +(-6/2)^2
(x -3)^2 = 17 . . . . simplify
C = 3b+2d is the same as 3b+2d = C
Let's isolate d. To do this, we first need to subtract 3b from both sides
3b+2d = C
3b+2d-3b = C-3b
2d = C-3b
Then divide both sides by 2
2d = C-3b
2d/2 = (C-3b)/2
d = (C-3b)/2
Take note of the parenthesis as they are very important. We want to divide ALL of C-3b over 2. We don't want to just divide -3b over 2.
The answer choices you have aren't 100% clear but I have a feeling your teacher meant to say d = (C-3b)/2 instead of d = C-3b/2 for choice A
If that assumption is correct, then the answer is choice A.
