Step-by-step explanation:

let's simply do the multiplications and then compare with the original.

(x-m)² + n

right ?

or is it

[tex] {(x - m)}^{2 + n} [/tex]

let's go for the first.

x² - 2mx + m² + n = x² - 3x

-2mx + m² + n = -3x

fun there we see two things :

-2m = -3

m = 3/2

and

m² + n = 0

(3/2)² = -n

9/4 = -n

n = -9/4

so our transformed expression looks like

(x - 3/2)² - 9/4
