Fill in the steps to complete the square:

x2 +12x − 14 = 0
x2 + 12x = 14
x2 +12x +
Response area = 14+
Response area

We factor and simplify to get:

(x+6)2 =
Response area

At this point, we need to Response area

After that is done, we will have:

Response area =
Response area

We get isolate the variable by:

Response area

Final answers are:

Response area

Final answers are:

(x + 6)^2 = 20

x + 6 = ±√20

x = -6 ± √20
