Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-20 + -6h + h2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -20 + -6h + h2 = 0 Solving -20 + -6h + h2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '20' to each side of the equation. -20 + -6h + 20 + h2 = 0 + 20 Reorder the terms: -20 + 20 + -6h + h2 = 0 + 20 Combine like terms: -20 + 20 = 0 0 + -6h + h2 = 0 + 20 -6h + h2 = 0 + 20 Combine like terms: 0 + 20 = 20 -6h + h2 = 20 The h term is -6h. Take half its coefficient (-3). Square it (9) and add it to both sides. Add '9' to each side of the equation. -6h + 9 + h2 = 20 + 9 Reorder the terms: 9 + -6h + h2 = 20 + 9 Combine like terms: 20 + 9 = 29 9 + -6h + h2 = 29 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (h + -3)(h + -3) = 29 Calculate the square root of the right side: 5.385164807 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (h + -3) equal to 5.385164807 and -5.385164807.

Subproblem 1

h + -3 = 5.385164807 Simplifying h + -3 = 5.385164807 Reorder the terms: -3 + h = 5.385164807 Solving -3 + h = 5.385164807 Solving for variable 'h'.
