Take HALF of the coefficient of y, which is 7, and SQUARE it to get 49. Add this to each side of the equation:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "y^2 + 14y + 49 = 32 + 49
\n" ); document.write( "(y+7)^2 = 81\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Take the square root of each side:
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28y%2B7%29+=+0+%2B-+9\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=-7+%2B-+9\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Calculate each value:
\n" ); document.write( "y=-7 +9 =2\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "y=-7-9 = -16\r
