Solve each equation by completing the square
6) m² + 16m – 8 = 0

m = - 8 ± 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

m² + 16m - 8 = 0 ( add 8 to both sides )

m² + 16m = 8

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the m- term )² to both sides

m² + 2(8)m + 64 = 8 + 64

(m + 8)² = 72 ( take the square root of both sides )

m + 8 = ± = ± = ± 6

Subtract 8 from both sides

m = - 8 ± 6

step-by-step explanation:

because first you have to add the 4x, 9x, and the 7x together and you get 20x and then you add the last numbers up and you get 5and then you put the subtraction sign in there and that's how you get the answer.
