Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(20 + 5x + x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 20 + 5x + x2 = 0 Solving 20 + 5x + x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '-20' to each side of the equation. 20 + 5x + -20 + x2 = 0 + -20 Reorder the terms: 20 + -20 + 5x + x2 = 0 + -20 Combine like terms: 20 + -20 = 0 0 + 5x + x2 = 0 + -20 5x + x2 = 0 + -20 Combine like terms: 0 + -20 = -20 5x + x2 = -20 The x term is 5x. Take half its coefficient (2.5). Square it (6.25) and add it to both sides. Add '6.25' to each side of the equation. 5x + 6.25 + x2 = -20 + 6.25 Reorder the terms: 6.25 + 5x + x2 = -20 + 6.25 Combine like terms: -20 + 6.25 = -13.75 6.25 + 5x + x2 = -13.75 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + 2.5)(x + 2.5) = -13.75 Can't calculate square root of the right side.
