What number must you add to complete the square of x2 plus 12x equals 40?
The constant term - the part without a variable - must be equal to the square of one half the linear term - the number in front of the "x". That is, it must be (12/2)2 = 36.
What number must you add to complete the square x2 12x -5?
I assume you mean,X2 + 12X - 5 = 0X2 + 12X = 5Now, halve the linear term (12), square it and add it to both sidesX2 + 12X + 36 = 5 + 36factor on the left, gather terms on the right(X + 6)2 = 41(X + 6)2 - 41 = 0==============vertex form.... (- 6, - 41)========================--------------vertexAnd that number added is 36
