To complete the square:
we take the coefficient ox "x" (which in this problem is -20)
we divide it by 2
square that number
then add it to both sides of the equation
-20 / 2 = -10
-10^2 = 100
then we add 100 to both sides of the equation:
x^2 -20x
x^2 -20x +100 = 100
******************************************************
To get the roots of the equation, we take the square root of both sides:
(x -10) * (x-10) = 10
(x-10) = square root (10)
x-10 =

Answer:
<em>( - 15, - 16 ) </em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Coordinates of midpoint are ( 
, 
)
( - 5 + x ) / 2 = - 10 ⇒ x = - 15
( 4 + y ) / 2 = - 6 ⇒ y = - 16
<em>( - 15, - 16 )</em>
Answer:
You don't really need to do it, but it helps you keep things more organized and easier to follow. Imagine if you're doing some multi-variable equation,
2a + 5b + 4d + 3c + b + a + 2d
that looks like a mess, it'll be easier to look at if you put all the similar variables next to each others like this:
a + 2a + b + 5b + 3c + 2d + 4d
(a + 2a) + (b + 5b) + 3c + (2d + 4d)
now you can add them up much easier.
