Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(1 + 3p + p2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 1 + 3p + p2 = 0 Solving 1 + 3p + p2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '-1' to each side of the equation. 1 + 3p + -1 + p2 = 0 + -1 Reorder the terms: 1 + -1 + 3p + p2 = 0 + -1 Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0 0 + 3p + p2 = 0 + -1 3p + p2 = 0 + -1 Combine like terms: 0 + -1 = -1 3p + p2 = -1 The p term is 3p. 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. 3p + 2.25 + p2 = -1 + 2.25 Reorder the terms: 2.25 + 3p + p2 = -1 + 2.25 Combine like terms: -1 + 2.25 = 1.25 2.25 + 3p + p2 = 1.25 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (p + 1.5)(p + 1.5) = 1.25 Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.118033989 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (p + 1.5) equal to 1.118033989 and -1.118033989.

Subproblem 1

p + 1.5 = 1.118033989 Simplifying p + 1.5 = 1.118033989 Reorder the terms: 1.5 + p = 1.118033989 Solving 1.5 + p = 1.118033989 Solving for variable 'p'. Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1.5' to each side of the equation. 1.5 + -1.5 + p = 1.118033989 + -1.5 Combine like terms: 1.5 + -1.5 = 0.0 0.0 + p = 1.118033989 + -1.5 p = 1.118033989 + -1.5 Combine like terms: 1.118033989 + -1.5 = -0.381966011 p = -0.381966011 Simplifying p = -0.381966011

Subproblem 2

p + 1.5 = -1.118033989 Simplifying p + 1.5 = -1.118033989 Reorder the terms: 1.5 + p = -1.118033989 Solving 1.5 + p = -1.118033989 Solving for variable 'p'. Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1.5' to each side of the equation. 1.5 + -1.5 + p = -1.118033989 + -1.5 Combine like terms: 1.5 + -1.5 = 0.0 0.0 + p = -1.118033989 + -1.5 p = -1.118033989 + -1.5 Combine like terms: -1.118033989 + -1.5 = -2.618033989 p = -2.618033989 Simplifying p = -2.618033989
