Question

Find x using completing the square method
x^2+16n+28 = 0

Answer 1

x=√−16n−28 or x=−√−16n−28

Explanation:

Step 1: Add -16n to both sides.

x2+16n+28+−16n=0+−16n

x2+28=−16n

Step 2: Add -28 to both sides.

x2+28+−28=−16n+−28

x2=−16n−28

Step 3: Take square root.

x=√−16n−28 or x=−√−16n−28
