Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\sf Option \ B}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 3:

[tex]\displaystyle x^2+\frac{bx}{a} =\frac{-c}{a}[/tex] --------------------(1)

The next step will be:

  • to find the b² for the expression on the left.

How to find b²:

Take the expression

[tex]\displaystyle x^2 + \frac{bx}{a}[/tex]

We can also write it as:

[tex]\displaystyle (x)^2 + 2(x)(\frac{b}{2a} )[/tex]

According to the formula [tex]a^2+2ab+b^2[/tex], the b of this expression is [tex]\displaystyle \frac{b}{2a}[/tex]. So,

b² will be:

[tex]\displaystyle =(\frac{b}{2a} )^2\\\\=\frac{b^2}{4a^2}[/tex]

So, we will add [tex]\displaystyle \frac{b^2}{4a^2}[/tex] to both sides in Eq. (1)

For STEP 4, the equation will become:

[tex]\displaystyle x^2+\frac{bx}{a} + \frac{b^2}{4a^2} = \frac{-c}{a} + \frac{b^2}{4a^2}[/tex]

[tex]\rule[225]{225}{2}[/tex]

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

The next step is to divide b/a by 2 then square it and add to both sides.

This creates a perfect square quadratic on left side.

So the answer is :

x squared plus b over a times x plus quantity b over 2 times a all squared equals negative c over a plus quantity b over 2 times a all squared
