Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
To complete the square, divide the coefficient of the b term 6x in two. This becomes -6/2=-3. Now square the number -3 and it becomes 9. To complete the square add 9 to both sides.
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]x^2-6x = 5\\[/tex]
We know the binomial formula: [tex](a-b)^2 = a^2 -2ab + b^2[/tex]
Let's consider 6x = 2ab, we know a is our first term - x;
6x = 2axb
6 = 2b
b = 3
So to make a perfect square, we need to add [tex]b^2[/tex] to both sides
[tex]x^2 - 6x + 3^2 = 5 + 3^2\\x^2 - 6x + 9 = 5 + 9\\(x-3)^2 = 14[/tex]
