Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(12 + x + -4x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 12 + x + -4x2 = 0 Solving 12 + x + -4x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Divide all terms by -4 the coefficient of the squared term: Divide each side by '-4'. -3 + -0.25x + x2 = 0 Move the constant term to the right: Add '3' to each side of the equation. -3 + -0.25x + 3 + x2 = 0 + 3 Reorder the terms: -3 + 3 + -0.25x + x2 = 0 + 3 Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0 0 + -0.25x + x2 = 0 + 3 -0.25x + x2 = 0 + 3 Combine like terms: 0 + 3 = 3 -0.25x + x2 = 3 The x term is x. Take half its coefficient (0.5). Square it (0.25) and add it to both sides. Add '0.25' to each side of the equation. -0.25x + 0.25 + x2 = 3 + 0.25 Reorder the terms: 0.25 + -0.25x + x2 = 3 + 0.25 Combine like terms: 3 + 0.25 = 3.25 0.25 + -0.25x + x2 = 3.25 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + 0.5)(x + 0.5) = 3.25 Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.802775638 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + 0.5) equal to 1.802775638 and -1.802775638.
