Given 2x squared, i'm going to group this in order a different.
00:05
I'm putting the x's together, leaving room to complete the square, the y's together, leaving room to complete the square, and then subtracting the two.
00:16
Now we'll factor the two out of the x's, leaving room to complete the square, factor the three out of the y's, leaving room to complete the square.
00:27
Now complete the square with the x's half of negative four is negative two squared as four, but we factored out of two, so we're going to have to add eight to the right -hand side.
00:35
Half of negative 4 is negative 2 squared is 4, but we factored out of 3.
00:38
We have to add a 12 to the other side.
00:42
So we have 2 times x minus 2 squared plus 3 times y minus 2 squared equals 18...
