Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(5 + -9x + 3x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 5 + -9x + 3x2 = 0 Solving 5 + -9x + 3x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Divide all terms by 3 the coefficient of the squared term: Divide each side by '3'. 1.666666667 + -3x + x2 = 0 Move the constant term to the right: Add '-1.666666667' to each side of the equation. 1.666666667 + -3x + -1.666666667 + x2 = 0 + -1.666666667 Reorder the terms: 1.666666667 + -1.666666667 + -3x + x2 = 0 + -1.666666667 Combine like terms: 1.666666667 + -1.666666667 = 0.000000000 0.000000000 + -3x + x2 = 0 + -1.666666667 -3x + x2 = 0 + -1.666666667 Combine like terms: 0 + -1.666666667 = -1.666666667 -3x + x2 = -1.666666667 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 = -1.666666667 + 2.25 Reorder the terms: 2.25 + -3x + x2 = -1.666666667 + 2.25 Combine like terms: -1.666666667 + 2.25 = 0.583333333 2.25 + -3x + x2 = 0.583333333 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + -1.5)(x + -1.5) = 0.583333333 Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.763762616 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + -1.5) equal to 0.763762616 and -0.763762616.

Subproblem 1

x + -1.5 = 0.763762616 Simplifying x + -1.5 = 0.763762616 Reorder the terms: -1.5 + x = 0.763762616 Solving -1.5 + x = 0.763762616 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '1.5' to each side of the equation. -1.5 + 1.5 + x = 0.763762616 + 1.5 Combine like terms: -1.5 + 1.5 = 0.0 0.0 + x = 0.763762616 + 1.5 x = 0.763762616 + 1.5 Combine like terms: 0.763762616 + 1.5 = 2.263762616 x = 2.263762616 Simplifying x = 2.263762616

Subproblem 2

x + -1.5 = -0.763762616 Simplifying x + -1.5 = -0.763762616 Reorder the terms: -1.5 + x = -0.763762616 Solving -1.5 + x = -0.763762616 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '1.5' to each side of the equation. -1.5 + 1.5 + x = -0.763762616 + 1.5 Combine like terms: -1.5 + 1.5 = 0.0 0.0 + x = -0.763762616 + 1.5 x = -0.763762616 + 1.5 Combine like terms: -0.763762616 + 1.5 = 0.736237384 x = 0.736237384 Simplifying x = 0.736237384
