Answer

$$3\left(r+\frac{3}{2}\right)^2-\frac{43}{4}$$

Work Step by Step

Completing the square, we obtain: $$3\left(r^2+3r-\frac{4}{3}+\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^2-\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^2\right) \\ 3\left(\left(r+\frac{3}{2}\right)^2-\frac{4}{3}-\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^2\right) \\ 3\left(r+\frac{3}{2}\right)^2-\frac{43}{4}$$
