Answer by Earlsdon(6294) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Start by putting your equation into the "standard form" for quadratic equations:
Subtract 6x from both sides.
Now you need to make the coefficient of the term equal to 1. You do this here by dividing through by 3.
Simplify this.
Next, you'll add to both sides.
Now you'll complete the square by adding the square of half the x-coefficient to both sides.
Simplify this.
Now factor the left side.
Simplify this.
Notice that you now have a "square" on the left side. Take the square root of both sides.
or Add 1 to both sides of each equation.
or These are the two solutions.
