Find the term that must be added to the equation x2+4x=1 to make it into a perfect square

The x term has a coefficient of 4. Take half of this to get 2, then square it to get 4. This is the value we add to both sides to get x^2+4x+4 = 5. Note how x^2+4x+4 factors into (x+2)^2

Another example: Let's say we started with x^2+6x = 1. To complete the square, we need to add 9 to both sides. I start with 6 (the x coefficient) and cut that in half to get 3, then I squared that to get 9. So we add 9 to both sides getting x^2+6x+9 = 10 which becomes (x+3)^2 = 10

easy its decreasing

step-by-step explanation:

because its top point is at the to of the graph on the left side (atleast from the veiw i see it) now if that top point wast in the lower part of the graph it would be increasing hope this have a nice day
