Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(255 + 70x + 2x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 255 + 70x + 2x2 = 0 Solving 255 + 70x + 2x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Divide all terms by 2 the coefficient of the squared term: Divide each side by '2'. 127.5 + 35x + x2 = 0 Move the constant term to the right: Add '-127.5' to each side of the equation. 127.5 + 35x + -127.5 + x2 = 0 + -127.5 Reorder the terms: 127.5 + -127.5 + 35x + x2 = 0 + -127.5 Combine like terms: 127.5 + -127.5 = 0.0 0.0 + 35x + x2 = 0 + -127.5 35x + x2 = 0 + -127.5 Combine like terms: 0 + -127.5 = -127.5 35x + x2 = -127.5 The x term is 35x. Take half its coefficient (17.5). Square it (306.25) and add it to both sides. Add '306.25' to each side of the equation. 35x + 306.25 + x2 = -127.5 + 306.25 Reorder the terms: 306.25 + 35x + x2 = -127.5 + 306.25 Combine like terms: -127.5 + 306.25 = 178.75 306.25 + 35x + x2 = 178.75 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + 17.5)(x + 17.5) = 178.75 Calculate the square root of the right side: 13.369741957 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + 17.5) equal to 13.369741957 and -13.369741957.

Subproblem 1

x + 17.5 = 13.369741957 Simplifying x + 17.5 = 13.369741957 Reorder the terms: 17.5 + x = 13.369741957 Solving 17.5 + x = 13.369741957 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-17.5' to each side of the equation. 17.5 + -17.5 + x = 13.369741957 + -17.5 Combine like terms: 17.5 + -17.5 = 0.0 0.0 + x = 13.369741957 + -17.5 x = 13.369741957 + -17.5 Combine like terms: 13.369741957 + -17.5 = -4.130258043 x = -4.130258043 Simplifying x = -4.130258043

Subproblem 2

x + 17.5 = -13.369741957 Simplifying x + 17.5 = -13.369741957 Reorder the terms: 17.5 + x = -13.369741957 Solving 17.5 + x = -13.369741957 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-17.5' to each side of the equation. 17.5 + -17.5 + x = -13.369741957 + -17.5 Combine like terms: 17.5 + -17.5 = 0.0 0.0 + x = -13.369741957 + -17.5 x = -13.369741957 + -17.5 Combine like terms: -13.369741957 + -17.5 = -30.869741957 x = -30.869741957 Simplifying x = -30.869741957
