Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-1 + -20x + 8x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -1 + -20x + 8x2 = 0 Solving -1 + -20x + 8x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Divide all terms by 8 the coefficient of the squared term: Divide each side by '8'. -0.125 + -2.5x + x2 = 0 Move the constant term to the right: Add '0.125' to each side of the equation. -0.125 + -2.5x + 0.125 + x2 = 0 + 0.125 Reorder the terms: -0.125 + 0.125 + -2.5x + x2 = 0 + 0.125 Combine like terms: -0.125 + 0.125 = 0.000 0.000 + -2.5x + x2 = 0 + 0.125 -2.5x + x2 = 0 + 0.125 Combine like terms: 0 + 0.125 = 0.125 -2.5x + x2 = 0.125 The x term is -2.5x. Take half its coefficient (-1.25). Square it (1.5625) and add it to both sides. Add '1.5625' to each side of the equation. -2.5x + 1.5625 + x2 = 0.125 + 1.5625 Reorder the terms: 1.5625 + -2.5x + x2 = 0.125 + 1.5625 Combine like terms: 0.125 + 1.5625 = 1.6875 1.5625 + -2.5x + x2 = 1.6875 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + -1.25)(x + -1.25) = 1.6875 Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.299038106 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + -1.25) equal to 1.299038106 and -1.299038106.

Subproblem 1
