X^2+3x+4=(x+a)^2+b what is A and B equal please help me

a = 1.5, b = 1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Expand the right side using FOIL, then compare the coefficients of like terms with the expression on the left side.

(x + a)² + b

= x² + 2ax + a² + b , then compare to

x² + 3x + 4

Comparing the coefficients of the x- terms

2a = 3 ( divide both sides by 2 )

a = 1.5

Comparing the constant terms

a² + b = 4

1.5² + b = 4

2.25 + b = 4 ( subtract 2.25 from both sides )

b = 1.75

step-by-step explanation:

it's is b
