Brian is solving the equation x 2 3 4x 5


Asked by maham237 @ in Mathematics viewed by 396 People


Brian is solving the equation x^2-3/4x=5. What value must be added to both sides of the equation to make the left side a perfect-square trinomial?

Answered by maham237 @



Given equation is :

x^{2} -\frac{3x}{4} =5

Step 1: half of coefficient of x

\frac{-3}{4} *\frac{1}{2} = \frac{-3}{8}

Squaring this we get

(\frac{-3}{8} )^{2} = \frac{9}{64}

step 2:

Adding \frac{9}{64} to both sides

x^{2} -\frac{3x}{4} +\frac{9}{64} = 5 +\frac{9}{64}
