Determine the value or values of d that complete the square for the expression. Enter your answers as a comma-separated list. If there is no solution, enter NO SOLUTION.)
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Perfect-square Form:: (x+y)^2 = x^2 + 2xy + y^2
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Notice::The 2nd term is the product of 2 times sqrt(1st term)*sqrt(last term)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " x^2 + dx + 64
\n" ); document.write( "2nd term = 2(sqrt(x^2))(sqrt(64)) = 2x*8 = 16x
\n" ); document.write( "Ans: x^2 + 16x + 64
\n" ); document.write( "d = 16
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "x^2 + dx + 49/4
\n" ); document.write( "2nd = 2(sqrt(x^2)*sqrt(49/4) = 2x*(7/2) = 7x
\n" ); document.write( "Ans: x^2 + 7x + (49/4)
\n" ); document.write( "d = 7
