So you need to come up with a perfect square that works for the x coefficients.
like.. (2x + 2)^2
(2x+2)(2x+2) = 4x^2 + 8x + 4
Compare this to the equation given. Our perfect square has +4 instead of +23. The difference is: 23 - 4 = 19
I'm going to assume the given equation equals zero..
So, If we add subtract 19 from both sides of the equation we get the perfect square.
4x^2 + 8x + 23 - 19 = 0 - 19
4x^2 + 8x + 4 = - 19
complete the square and move 19 over..
(2x+2)^2 + 19 = 0
factor the 2 out becomes 2^2 = 4
ANSWER: 4(x+1)^2 + 19 = 0
for a short cut, the standard equation
ax^2 + bx + c = 0 becomes a(x - h)^2 + k = 0
Where "a, b, c" are the same and ..
h = -b/(2a)
k = c - b^2/(4a)
Vertex = (h, k)
this will be a minimum point when "a" is positive upward facing parabola and a maximum point when "a" is negative downward facing parabola.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
So 18 oranges are 12 percent of her total oranges. You can use Ratio to solve this.
O : P
18 : 12 P = Percentage O = Orange
1.5 : 1
150 : 100
All I did was make the percentage one by dividing both numbers by 12. This makes it 1.5 oranges per percent. Times 1.5 with 100 to make it 100 percent.
The first decimal point is tenth. 4.88
when rounding, we just look at the number right after the number you want to round to. it's 8 right? since 8 is closer to 10 than 0,
we round it to 4.9
(4.8 + 0.10)
The coordinates of the other endpoint are (-8, 18)
