Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-36 + 2x + x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -36 + 2x + x2 = 0 Solving -36 + 2x + x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '36' to each side of the equation. -36 + 2x + 36 + x2 = 0 + 36 Reorder the terms: -36 + 36 + 2x + x2 = 0 + 36 Combine like terms: -36 + 36 = 0 0 + 2x + x2 = 0 + 36 2x + x2 = 0 + 36 Combine like terms: 0 + 36 = 36 2x + x2 = 36 The x term is 2x. Take half its coefficient (1). Square it (1) and add it to both sides. Add '1' to each side of the equation. 2x + 1 + x2 = 36 + 1 Reorder the terms: 1 + 2x + x2 = 36 + 1 Combine like terms: 36 + 1 = 37 1 + 2x + x2 = 37 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + 1)(x + 1) = 37 Calculate the square root of the right side: 6.08276253 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + 1) equal to 6.08276253 and -6.08276253.

Subproblem 1

x + 1 = 6.08276253 Simplifying x + 1 = 6.08276253 Reorder the terms: 1 + x = 6.08276253 Solving 1 + x = 6.08276253 Solving for variable 'x'.
