\[5x^2+20x+10\] \[5(x^2+4x+2)\] \[5(x^2+4x+4-4+2)\] \[5((x^2+4x+4)+(-4+2))\] \[5((x+2)^2-2)\] \[5(x+2)^2-10\]

OpenStudy (zarkon):

break up your problem into the x part and the y part \[16x^2 + 25y^2 - 96x - 200y + 144 = 0\] \[(16x^2 - 96x) + (25y^2 - 200y) + 144 = 0\] complete the square on those two parts
