Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(18 + 4x + -1x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 18 + 4x + -1x2 = 0 Solving 18 + 4x + -1x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Divide all terms by -1 the coefficient of the squared term: Divide each side by '-1'. -18 + -4x + x2 = 0 Move the constant term to the right: Add '18' to each side of the equation. -18 + -4x + 18 + x2 = 0 + 18 Reorder the terms: -18 + 18 + -4x + x2 = 0 + 18 Combine like terms: -18 + 18 = 0 0 + -4x + x2 = 0 + 18 -4x + x2 = 0 + 18 Combine like terms: 0 + 18 = 18 -4x + x2 = 18 The x term is -4x. Take half its coefficient (-2). Square it (4) and add it to both sides. Add '4' to each side of the equation. -4x + 4 + x2 = 18 + 4 Reorder the terms: 4 + -4x + x2 = 18 + 4 Combine like terms: 18 + 4 = 22 4 + -4x + x2 = 22 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + -2)(x + -2) = 22 Calculate the square root of the right side: 4.69041576 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + -2) equal to 4.69041576 and -4.69041576.

Subproblem 1

x + -2 = 4.69041576 Simplifying x + -2 = 4.69041576 Reorder the terms: -2 + x = 4.69041576 Solving -2 + x = 4.69041576 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '2' to each side of the equation. -2 + 2 + x = 4.69041576 + 2 Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0 0 + x = 4.69041576 + 2 x = 4.69041576 + 2 Combine like terms: 4.69041576 + 2 = 6.69041576 x = 6.69041576 Simplifying x = 6.69041576

Subproblem 2

x + -2 = -4.69041576 Simplifying x + -2 = -4.69041576 Reorder the terms: -2 + x = -4.69041576 Solving -2 + x = -4.69041576 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '2' to each side of the equation. -2 + 2 + x = -4.69041576 + 2 Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0 0 + x = -4.69041576 + 2 x = -4.69041576 + 2 Combine like terms: -4.69041576 + 2 = -2.69041576 x = -2.69041576 Simplifying x = -2.69041576
