    Patel needs to solve the quadratic equation. The steps in the solution are shown below:

    8x² + 16x + 3 = 0

    Transpose 3, we have:

    8x² + 16x = - 3

    Factor out 8, we have:

    8 (x² + 2x) = - 3

    Divide both sides by 8, we have:

    x² + 2x = - 3/8

    Add 2 in both sides, we have:

    x² + 2x + 2 = - 3/8 + 2

    (x+'1) ² = - 3/10
