Answer:

b=9 and b=-21

Step-by-step explanation:

first step: move 195 to the other side by adding to get:

b^2+12b=189

now to find the constant you take the b value which is 12 divide that by 2 and square it. then add the product to both sides. 12/2=6, 6^2=36

b^2+12b+36=189+36

next factor b^2+12b+36.

(b+6)^2=225

square root both sides to get:

b+6=15 and b+6=-15

solve by subracting 6 to both sides and you get the 2 final answers.

b=9 and b=-21
