Question 436856: Solve the equation by completing the square.
y^2+2y+26=0
(Simplify your answer. Type an exact answer using radicals as needed. Express complex numbers in terms of i. Use a comma to separate answers as needed) Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Solve the equation by completing the square.
y^2+2y+26=0
---
y^2+2y+? = -26+?
---
y^2+2y+1 = -26+1
---
(y+1)^2 = -25
y+1 = 5i or y+1 = -5i
y = -1+5i or y = -1-5i
