Subproblem 1

Set the factor 'x' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying x = 0 Solving x = 0 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Simplifying x = 0

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(1 + -4x + x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 1 + -4x + x2 = 0 Solving 1 + -4x + x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '-1' to each side of the equation. 1 + -4x + -1 + x2 = 0 + -1 Reorder the terms: 1 + -1 + -4x + x2 = 0 + -1 Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0 0 + -4x + x2 = 0 + -1 -4x + x2 = 0 + -1 Combine like terms: 0 + -1 = -1 -4x + x2 = -1 The x term is -4x. Take half its coefficient (-2). Square it (4) and add it to both sides. Add '4' to each side of the equation. -4x + 4 + x2 = -1 + 4 Reorder the terms: 4 + -4x + x2 = -1 + 4 Combine like terms: -1 + 4 = 3 4 + -4x + x2 = 3 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + -2)(x + -2) = 3 Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.732050808 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + -2) equal to 1.732050808 and -1.732050808.

Subproblem 1

x + -2 = 1.732050808 Simplifying x + -2 = 1.732050808 Reorder the terms: -2 + x = 1.732050808 Solving -2 + x = 1.732050808 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '2' to each side of the equation. -2 + 2 + x = 1.732050808 + 2 Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0 0 + x = 1.732050808 + 2 x = 1.732050808 + 2 Combine like terms: 1.732050808 + 2 = 3.732050808 x = 3.732050808 Simplifying x = 3.732050808

Subproblem 2

x + -2 = -1.732050808 Simplifying x + -2 = -1.732050808 Reorder the terms: -2 + x = -1.732050808 Solving -2 + x = -1.732050808 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '2' to each side of the equation. -2 + 2 + x = -1.732050808 + 2 Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0 0 + x = -1.732050808 + 2 x = -1.732050808 + 2 Combine like terms: -1.732050808 + 2 = 0.267949192 x = 0.267949192 Simplifying x = 0.267949192
