Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(120 + 3x + -4x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 120 + 3x + -4x2 = 0 Solving 120 + 3x + -4x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Divide all terms by -4 the coefficient of the squared term: Divide each side by '-4'. -30 + -0.75x + x2 = 0 Move the constant term to the right: Add '30' to each side of the equation. -30 + -0.75x + 30 + x2 = 0 + 30 Reorder the terms: -30 + 30 + -0.75x + x2 = 0 + 30 Combine like terms: -30 + 30 = 0 0 + -0.75x + x2 = 0 + 30 -0.75x + x2 = 0 + 30 Combine like terms: 0 + 30 = 30 -0.75x + x2 = 30 The x term is -0.75x. Take half its coefficient (-0.375). Square it (0.140625) and add it to both sides. Add '0.140625' to each side of the equation. -0.75x + 0.140625 + x2 = 30 + 0.140625 Reorder the terms: 0.140625 + -0.75x + x2 = 30 + 0.140625 Combine like terms: 30 + 0.140625 = 30.140625 0.140625 + -0.75x + x2 = 30.140625 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + -0.375)(x + -0.375) = 30.140625 Calculate the square root of the right side: 5.490047814 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + -0.375) equal to 5.490047814 and -5.490047814.
