Question

complete the square x^2-6x-25=0

Answer 1

Do you want the solution or a full explanation?

Answer 2

either :)

Answer 3

Well, I'll provide a solution. A full explanation is a bit much and if you don't want it, that makes this easier.

Answer 4

x^2-6x - 25 = 0
x^2 -6x = 25
x^2-6x +9 = 25 + 9
(x-3)^2 = 34
x - 3 = sqrt{34}
x = plus or minus sqrt(34) + 3

Answer 5

That's just a solution. A full explanation would provide general steps on how to complete the square
