Answer
The solutions are $3b$ and $-2b$, and solution set is {$3b, -2b$}.
Work Step by Step
$x^2 - bx = 6b^2$. Solve for $x$.
The coefficient of the x-term is $-b$. Half of $-b$ is $-\frac{b}{2}$, and $(-\frac{b}{2})^2$ is $\frac{b^2}{4}$.
Add $\frac{b^2}{4}$ to both sides of the equation to complete the square.
$x^2 - bx +\frac{b^2}{4}= 6b^2+\frac{b^2}{4}$
$x^2 - bx +\frac{b^2}{4}= \frac{25b^2}{4}$
$(x-\frac{b}{2})^2 = \frac{25b^2}{4}$
$x-\frac{b}{2}= ±\sqrt\frac{25b^2}{4}$
$x = \frac{b}{2}+\frac{5b}{2}$ or $\frac{b}{2}-\frac{5b}{2}$
$x = 3b$ or $x=-2b$
The solutions are $3b$ and $-2b$, and solution set is {$3b, -2b$}.
