Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(3 + -12x2 + 4x4)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 3 + -12x2 + 4x4 = 0 Solving 3 + -12x2 + 4x4 = 0 Begin completing the square. Divide all terms by 4 the coefficient of the squared term: Divide each side by '4'. 0.75 + -3x2 + x4 = 0 Move the constant term to the right: Add '-0.75' to each side of the equation. 0.75 + -3x2 + -0.75 + x4 = 0 + -0.75 Reorder the terms: 0.75 + -0.75 + -3x2 + x4 = 0 + -0.75 Combine like terms: 0.75 + -0.75 = 0.00 0.00 + -3x2 + x4 = 0 + -0.75 -3x2 + x4 = 0 + -0.75 Combine like terms: 0 + -0.75 = -0.75 -3x2 + x4 = -0.75 The x term is -3x2. 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. -3x2 + 2.25 + x4 = -0.75 + 2.25 Reorder the terms: 2.25 + -3x2 + x4 = -0.75 + 2.25 Combine like terms: -0.75 + 2.25 = 1.5 2.25 + -3x2 + x4 = 1.5 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x2 + -1.5)(x2 + -1.5) = 1.5 Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.224744871 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x2 + -1.5) equal to 1.224744871 and -1.224744871.
