Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(42 + 25s + s2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 42 + 25s + s2 = 0 Solving 42 + 25s + s2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '-42' to each side of the equation. 42 + 25s + -42 + s2 = 0 + -42 Reorder the terms: 42 + -42 + 25s + s2 = 0 + -42 Combine like terms: 42 + -42 = 0 0 + 25s + s2 = 0 + -42 25s + s2 = 0 + -42 Combine like terms: 0 + -42 = -42 25s + s2 = -42 The s term is 25s. Take half its coefficient (12.5). Square it (156.25) and add it to both sides. Add '156.25' to each side of the equation. 25s + 156.25 + s2 = -42 + 156.25 Reorder the terms: 156.25 + 25s + s2 = -42 + 156.25 Combine like terms: -42 + 156.25 = 114.25 156.25 + 25s + s2 = 114.25 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (s + 12.5)(s + 12.5) = 114.25 Calculate the square root of the right side: 10.688779163 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (s + 12.5) equal to 10.688779163 and -10.688779163.
