Given:

2x^2 + 2x = 24

Complete the square.

Solution:
In order to complete the square, we must familiaze first with how quadratic equations are written. 

Quadratic equations are written in the form,

ax^2 + bx + c

Hence in order to complete the square, we must subtract -24 on both sides of the equation so that we'll cancel out 24 on the other side.

= 2x^2 + 2x - 24

Final answer:

= 2x^2 + 2x - 24
