Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-480 + 7x + x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -480 + 7x + x2 = 0 Solving -480 + 7x + x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '480' to each side of the equation. -480 + 7x + 480 + x2 = 0 + 480 Reorder the terms: -480 + 480 + 7x + x2 = 0 + 480 Combine like terms: -480 + 480 = 0 0 + 7x + x2 = 0 + 480 7x + x2 = 0 + 480 Combine like terms: 0 + 480 = 480 7x + x2 = 480 The x term is 7x. Take half its coefficient (3.5). Square it (12.25) and add it to both sides. Add '12.25' to each side of the equation. 7x + 12.25 + x2 = 480 + 12.25 Reorder the terms: 12.25 + 7x + x2 = 480 + 12.25 Combine like terms: 480 + 12.25 = 492.25 12.25 + 7x + x2 = 492.25 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + 3.5)(x + 3.5) = 492.25 Calculate the square root of the right side: 22.186707732 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + 3.5) equal to 22.186707732 and -22.186707732.
