Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(5 + 2x + -1x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 5 + 2x + -1x2 = 0 Solving 5 + 2x + -1x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Divide all terms by -1 the coefficient of the squared term: Divide each side by '-1'. -5 + -2x + x2 = 0 Move the constant term to the right: Add '5' to each side of the equation. -5 + -2x + 5 + x2 = 0 + 5 Reorder the terms: -5 + 5 + -2x + x2 = 0 + 5 Combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0 0 + -2x + x2 = 0 + 5 -2x + x2 = 0 + 5 Combine like terms: 0 + 5 = 5 -2x + x2 = 5 The x term is -2x. Take half its coefficient (-1). Square it (1) and add it to both sides. Add '1' to each side of the equation. -2x + 1 + x2 = 5 + 1 Reorder the terms: 1 + -2x + x2 = 5 + 1 Combine like terms: 5 + 1 = 6 1 + -2x + x2 = 6 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + -1)(x + -1) = 6 Calculate the square root of the right side: 2.449489743 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + -1) equal to 2.449489743 and -2.449489743.

Subproblem 1

x + -1 = 2.449489743 Simplifying x + -1 = 2.449489743 Reorder the terms: -1 + x = 2.449489743 Solving -1 + x = 2.449489743 Solving for variable 'x'.
