For which equation does it make the most sense to solve by completing the square?
x² + 20x = 52
5x² + 3x = 9
x 2 −8=1
3 x 2 −x+17=0

The equation for which square method is possible is x²-8=1

Step-by-step explanation:

For checking which of the equation satisfies the complete square condition, we proceed by checking each of the available options

1). x²+20x=52

Rewriting it as  x²+20x-52

This binomial expression is not a perfect square since the product of the coefficient of x²(i.e. 1) and independent constant (i.e. 52) is not a perfect square.

2). 5x² + 3x = 9

This equation can be rearranged as 5x²+3x-9=0

This binomial expression is not a perfect square since the product of the coefficient of x²(i.e. 5) and independent constant(i.e. 9) is not a perfect square.

3.) x² −8=1

This equation can be rearranged as  x²=9

Hence x= ±3

This binomial expression is a perfect square and can be done by the square method.

4). 3x² −x+17=0

This binomial expression is not a perfect square since the product of the coefficient of x²(i.e. 3) and independent constant(i.e. 17) is not a perfect square.
