Full solution

Q. Complete the square. Fill in the number that makes the polynomial a perfect-square quadratic.\newlineq212q+q^2 - 12q + \underline{\hspace{2em}}
  1. Identify coefficients: Identify the values of aa, bb, and cc in the quadratic expression.\newlineLeading coefficient (aa): 11\newlineCoefficient of linear term (bb): 12-12\newlineConstant (cc): ??
  2. Complete the square: Determine the value needed to complete the square.\newlineTo complete the square for q212qq^2 - 12q, add (122)2\left(-\frac{12}{2}\right)^2.\newlinePerfect square quadratic: q212q+(122)2q^2 - 12q + \left(-\frac{12}{2}\right)^2
  3. Calculate missing value: Calculate (12/2)2(-12/2)^2 to find the missing value in q212q+___q^2 − 12q + \_\_\_. \newline(12/2)2(-12/2)^2\newline=(6)2= (-6)^2\newline=36= 36
