Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-9 + 6x + 5x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -9 + 6x + 5x2 = 0 Solving -9 + 6x + 5x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Divide all terms by 5 the coefficient of the squared term: Divide each side by '5'. -1.8 + 1.2x + x2 = 0 Move the constant term to the right: Add '1.8' to each side of the equation. -1.8 + 1.2x + 1.8 + x2 = 0 + 1.8 Reorder the terms: -1.8 + 1.8 + 1.2x + x2 = 0 + 1.8 Combine like terms: -1.8 + 1.8 = 0.0 0.0 + 1.2x + x2 = 0 + 1.8 1.2x + x2 = 0 + 1.8 Combine like terms: 0 + 1.8 = 1.8 1.2x + x2 = 1.8 The x term is 1.2x. Take half its coefficient (0.6). Square it (0.36) and add it to both sides. Add '0.36' to each side of the equation. 1.2x + 0.36 + x2 = 1.8 + 0.36 Reorder the terms: 0.36 + 1.2x + x2 = 1.8 + 0.36 Combine like terms: 1.8 + 0.36 = 2.16 0.36 + 1.2x + x2 = 2.16 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + 0.6)(x + 0.6) = 2.16 Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.469693846 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + 0.6) equal to 1.469693846 and -1.469693846.
