Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-15 + x + 8x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -15 + x + 8x2 = 0 Solving -15 + x + 8x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Divide all terms by 8 the coefficient of the squared term: Divide each side by '8'. -1.875 + 0.125x + x2 = 0 Move the constant term to the right: Add '1.875' to each side of the equation. -1.875 + 0.125x + 1.875 + x2 = 0 + 1.875 Reorder the terms: -1.875 + 1.875 + 0.125x + x2 = 0 + 1.875 Combine like terms: -1.875 + 1.875 = 0.000 0.000 + 0.125x + x2 = 0 + 1.875 0.125x + x2 = 0 + 1.875 Combine like terms: 0 + 1.875 = 1.875 0.125x + x2 = 1.875 The x term is x. Take half its coefficient (0.5). Square it (0.25) and add it to both sides. Add '0.25' to each side of the equation. 0.125x + 0.25 + x2 = 1.875 + 0.25 Reorder the terms: 0.25 + 0.125x + x2 = 1.875 + 0.25 Combine like terms: 1.875 + 0.25 = 2.125 0.25 + 0.125x + x2 = 2.125 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + 0.5)(x + 0.5) = 2.125 Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.457737974 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + 0.5) equal to 1.457737974 and -1.457737974.
