Question

What must be added to 4c square - 12c + 5 so that the expression becomes a perfect square

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

4x²+20x+16

= [(2x)² + 2 × 2 × 5 ]+ 16

the bracketted part is of the form: a² +2ab, b² must be added to make it a perfect square,

but in 52-25, 16 is already present

so, we only have to add, 25-15-9

on adding 9,

(2x)²+2×2×5+9+16

=(2x)²+2×2×5+25

=(2x+5)²

which is a perfect square
