Question 97658: I need help completing the square for this problem.
16x^2-16x-5=0
So far I have tried this:
16x^2-16x+[1/2(-16)]=5+[1/2(-16)]
16x^2-16x+64=5+64
16(x^2-x+4)=69
16(????????????
I'm lost from this point on. I tried factoring but it's not working for me. I hope you can help me.
Thank you very much
Solve a Quadratic Equation by completing the square.
I was not sure what would be an acceptable answer for your teacher so I worked it all the way out. This problem is a Quadratic Equation. Here is your solution.

Question 98223: Please check to see if I am doing this the correct way.
SOLVE AND CHECK
~(4x+4)+12=0
~(4x+4)=-12
(~(4x+4))^(2)=(-12)^(2)
(~(4(x+1)))^(2)=(-12)^(2)
(2)^(2)=(-12)^(2)
(2~(x+1))^(2)=(-12)^(2)
4(x+1)=(-12)^(2)
(4x+4)=(-12)^(2)
4x+4=(-12)^(2)
4x+4=(144)
4x+4=144
4x=140
x=35
No Solution
Thank you

Question 98416: You have a round clock from 1-12. Draw two straight lines to get three equal sums.
I drew a line from 1 to 11 and from 9 to 3. I'm not sure though because it sawy three equal sums when you're supposed to draw two lines.
