Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(24 + -19m + m2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 24 + -19m + m2 = 0 Solving 24 + -19m + m2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '-24' to each side of the equation. 24 + -19m + -24 + m2 = 0 + -24 Reorder the terms: 24 + -24 + -19m + m2 = 0 + -24 Combine like terms: 24 + -24 = 0 0 + -19m + m2 = 0 + -24 -19m + m2 = 0 + -24 Combine like terms: 0 + -24 = -24 -19m + m2 = -24 The m term is -19m. Take half its coefficient (-9.5). Square it (90.25) and add it to both sides. Add '90.25' to each side of the equation. -19m + 90.25 + m2 = -24 + 90.25 Reorder the terms: 90.25 + -19m + m2 = -24 + 90.25 Combine like terms: -24 + 90.25 = 66.25 90.25 + -19m + m2 = 66.25 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (m + -9.5)(m + -9.5) = 66.25 Calculate the square root of the right side: 8.139410298 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (m + -9.5) equal to 8.139410298 and -8.139410298.
