Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-1 + -12x + 2x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -1 + -12x + 2x2 = 0 Solving -1 + -12x + 2x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Divide all terms by 2 the coefficient of the squared term: Divide each side by '2'. -0.5 + -6x + x2 = 0 Move the constant term to the right: Add '0.5' to each side of the equation. -0.5 + -6x + 0.5 + x2 = 0 + 0.5 Reorder the terms: -0.5 + 0.5 + -6x + x2 = 0 + 0.5 Combine like terms: -0.5 + 0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + -6x + x2 = 0 + 0.5 -6x + x2 = 0 + 0.5 Combine like terms: 0 + 0.5 = 0.5 -6x + x2 = 0.5 The x term is -6x. Take half its coefficient (-3). Square it (9) and add it to both sides. Add '9' to each side of the equation. -6x + 9 + x2 = 0.5 + 9 Reorder the terms: 9 + -6x + x2 = 0.5 + 9 Combine like terms: 0.5 + 9 = 9.5 9 + -6x + x2 = 9.5 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + -3)(x + -3) = 9.5 Calculate the square root of the right side: 3.082207001 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + -3) equal to 3.082207001 and -3.082207001.

Subproblem 1

x + -3 = 3.082207001 Simplifying x + -3 = 3.082207001 Reorder the terms: -3 + x = 3.082207001 Solving -3 + x = 3.082207001 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '3' to each side of the equation. -3 + 3 + x = 3.082207001 + 3 Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0 0 + x = 3.082207001 + 3 x = 3.082207001 + 3 Combine like terms: 3.082207001 + 3 = 6.082207001 x = 6.082207001 Simplifying x = 6.082207001

Subproblem 2

x + -3 = -3.082207001 Simplifying x + -3 = -3.082207001 Reorder the terms: -3 + x = -3.082207001 Solving -3 + x = -3.082207001 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '3' to each side of the equation. -3 + 3 + x = -3.082207001 + 3 Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0 0 + x = -3.082207001 + 3 x = -3.082207001 + 3 Combine like terms: -3.082207001 + 3 = -0.082207001 x = -0.082207001 Simplifying x = -0.082207001
