Question
How do I solve this broken down?
The equation shown in the image is:

\[ 4x^2 + 4x = 15 \]

This is a quadratic equation. To solve it, one can either factorize it, complete the square, or apply the quadratic formula. The equation can be rewritten in the standard form as:

\[ 4x^2 + 4x - 15 = 0 \]

This step sets the equation to zero, which is crucial for finding the values of \( x \) that satisfy the equation.
