Answer 1
Answer: (a\pm b)^2=a^2\pm2ab+b^2\n\n1.\ x^2-16x+c=x^2-2x\cdot8+c\to c=8^2=64\n\nx^2-16x+64=x^2-2x\cdot8+8^2=(x-8)^2\n\n\n2.\ p^2-14p+c=p^2-2p\cdot7+c\to c=7^2=49\n\np^2-14p+49=p^2-2p\cdot7+7^2=(p-7)^2


3.\ b^2+18b+c=b^2+2b\cdot9+c\to c=9^2=81\n\nb^2+18b+81=b^2+2b\cdot9+9^2=(b+9)^2\n\n\n4.\ n^2-n+c=n^2-2n\cdot(1)/(2)\to c=((1)/(2))^2=(1)/(4)\n\nn^2-n+(1)/(4)=n^2-2n\cdot(1)/(2)+((1)/(2))^2=(n-(1)/(2))^2
