Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(14 + 5b + b2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 14 + 5b + b2 = 0 Solving 14 + 5b + b2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '-14' to each side of the equation. 14 + 5b + -14 + b2 = 0 + -14 Reorder the terms: 14 + -14 + 5b + b2 = 0 + -14 Combine like terms: 14 + -14 = 0 0 + 5b + b2 = 0 + -14 5b + b2 = 0 + -14 Combine like terms: 0 + -14 = -14 5b + b2 = -14 The b term is 5b. Take half its coefficient (2.5). Square it (6.25) and add it to both sides. Add '6.25' to each side of the equation. 5b + 6.25 + b2 = -14 + 6.25 Reorder the terms: 6.25 + 5b + b2 = -14 + 6.25 Combine like terms: -14 + 6.25 = -7.75 6.25 + 5b + b2 = -7.75 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (b + 2.5)(b + 2.5) = -7.75 Can't calculate square root of the right side. The solution to this equation could not be determined. This subproblem is being ignored because a solution could not be determined. The solution to this equation could not be determined.
