Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(3 + 6x + 2x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 3 + 6x + 2x2 = 0 Solving 3 + 6x + 2x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Divide all terms by 2 the coefficient of the squared term: Divide each side by '2'. 1.5 + 3x + x2 = 0 Move the constant term to the right: Add '-1.5' to each side of the equation. 1.5 + 3x + -1.5 + x2 = 0 + -1.5 Reorder the terms: 1.5 + -1.5 + 3x + x2 = 0 + -1.5 Combine like terms: 1.5 + -1.5 = 0.0 0.0 + 3x + x2 = 0 + -1.5 3x + x2 = 0 + -1.5 Combine like terms: 0 + -1.5 = -1.5 3x + x2 = -1.5 The x term is 3x. Take half its coefficient (1.5). Square it (2.25) and add it to both sides. Add '2.25' to each side of the equation. 3x + 2.25 + x2 = -1.5 + 2.25 Reorder the terms: 2.25 + 3x + x2 = -1.5 + 2.25 Combine like terms: -1.5 + 2.25 = 0.75 2.25 + 3x + x2 = 0.75 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + 1.5)(x + 1.5) = 0.75 Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.866025404 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + 1.5) equal to 0.866025404 and -0.866025404.
