Solve the quadratic function by completing the square. what are the missing pieces in the steps?
–32 = 2(x2 + 10x)
–32 + = 2(x2 + 10x + 25)
18 = 2(x + 5)2
9 = (x + 5)2
± = x + 5
x = –2 or x =

If you would like to solve the quadratic function by completing the square, you can do this using the following steps:

- 32 = 2(x^2 + 10x)
- 32 + 50 = 2(x^2 + 10x + 25)
18 = 2(x + 5)^2
9 = (x + 5)^2
± sqrt(9) = x + 5
± 3 = x + 5
x = - 2 or x = - 8
