Well it isn't tht hard....just put the 2 eqtns as equalant to each other nd expand (2x+a)+bHello. Can anyone please answer this question:
Express 4x^2-12x in the form (2x+a)^2+b.
This question is in the Pure Maths 1 paper 11 of the May/June 2014 session.
The answers on the mark scheme are a=-3 and b=-9.
I know how to complete the square when the coefficient of x is not 1, but, I can't do this one because x has a coefficient of 2 in the form in which they want the expression. I don't know how to go about it.
Thank you.

could you show it?Well it isn't tht hard....just put the 2 eqtns as equalant to each other nd expand (2x+a)+b
Aftr expanding it compare the values on Both syds
Yup wait a seccould you show it?
Oh, okay! Yeah, it isn't that hard. Thank you very much
Can I use this method in equations like "4x^2 -12 x + 2 ?Could only fynd ths page in a hurry![]()
http://sketchtoy.com/64179082Can I use this method in equations like "4x^2 -12 x + 2 ?
i) http://sketchtoy.com/64179135Can someone please solve this question as soon as possible? (P31 M/J 2013)

ii) Non of my credits, "As line in parallel to x-axis so parallel vector of the line will be 1,0,0
equation of the line, r=(7,7,-5)+t(1,0,0)=(7+t,7,-5)
put these values of x,y,z in the equation of plain, and find the value of t.
find B by putting this value of t into equation of the line n find |AB|"
"put these values of x,y,z in the equation of plain, and find the value of t."How to find t?
I'm kinda confused with the second part, can you please do the full working for me?"put these values of x,y,z in the equation of plain, and find the value of t."
