Q. Rewrite the equation by completing the square.\newlinex214x+49=0x^2-14x+49=0\newline(x+)2=(x+\square)^2=\square
  1. Step 11: Coefficient of x: The coefficient of x is 14-14. To complete the square, we need to take half of this coefficient and square it. This will give us the number to add and subtract to complete the square.\newlineHalf of 14-14 is 7-7, and squaring 7-7 gives us 4949.\newline(142)2=(7)2=49\left(\frac{-14}{2}\right)^2 = (-7)^2 = 49
  2. Step 22: Completing the square: Now we rewrite the equation x214x+49=0x^2 - 14x + 49 = 0 by adding and subtracting the number we found, which is 4949, inside the equation. However, since 4949 is already present as a constant term in the equation, we do not need to add or subtract anything. The equation is already a perfect square.\newlinex214x+49=(x7)2x^2 - 14x + 49 = (x - 7)^2
  3. Step 33: Rewriting the equation: We can now rewrite the equation as a completed square:\newline(x7)2=0(x - 7)^2 = 0
