Solve by completing the square. Please show all steps and explain. The answer is y = 1, 3 y^2 - 4y + 3 = 0Solution
y^2 - 4y + 3 =0
y^2 -4y = -3
we have formula : (a+b)^2 = a^2 +b^2 +2ab
we have a = 1; 2ab = -4
b = -2
y^2 - 4y +4 -4 = -3
y^2 - 4y + -4 = -3
(y -2)^2 = 1
(y -2)^ = 1
y-2 = +/- 1
y = 2+1
y = 3
y = 2-1
y = 1
Solution : y = 1 ,3
