Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(2 + -4t + t2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 2 + -4t + t2 = 0 Solving 2 + -4t + t2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '-2' to each side of the equation. 2 + -4t + -2 + t2 = 0 + -2 Reorder the terms: 2 + -2 + -4t + t2 = 0 + -2 Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0 0 + -4t + t2 = 0 + -2 -4t + t2 = 0 + -2 Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2 -4t + t2 = -2 The t term is -4t. Take half its coefficient (-2). Square it (4) and add it to both sides. Add '4' to each side of the equation. -4t + 4 + t2 = -2 + 4 Reorder the terms: 4 + -4t + t2 = -2 + 4 Combine like terms: -2 + 4 = 2 4 + -4t + t2 = 2 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (t + -2)(t + -2) = 2 Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.414213562 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (t + -2) equal to 1.414213562 and -1.414213562.

Subproblem 1

t + -2 = 1.414213562 Simplifying t + -2 = 1.414213562 Reorder the terms: -2 + t = 1.414213562 Solving -2 + t = 1.414213562 Solving for variable 't'. Move all terms containing t to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '2' to each side of the equation. -2 + 2 + t = 1.414213562 + 2 Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0 0 + t = 1.414213562 + 2 t = 1.414213562 + 2 Combine like terms: 1.414213562 + 2 = 3.414213562 t = 3.414213562 Simplifying t = 3.414213562
