Hello,
I am double-checking a test I did, and I realize I do not quite understand the basics of “completing the square”. I thought I had a handle on it, but I am getting stuck. I may be overthinking it. Please can you guide me? I’ve checked Bartleby’s catalog of information, but I came up short on an example with explanations.
Can you please help me understand with a little explanation (or side notes) on how to work out a simple one? I should be able to take it from there. Here’s one from my book:
X2 + 10x
Thank you so much.
Coreen.
