Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(13 + 8x + x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 13 + 8x + x2 = 0 Solving 13 + 8x + x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '-13' to each side of the equation. 13 + 8x + -13 + x2 = 0 + -13 Reorder the terms: 13 + -13 + 8x + x2 = 0 + -13 Combine like terms: 13 + -13 = 0 0 + 8x + x2 = 0 + -13 8x + x2 = 0 + -13 Combine like terms: 0 + -13 = -13 8x + x2 = -13 The x term is 8x. Take half its coefficient (4). Square it (16) and add it to both sides. Add '16' to each side of the equation. 8x + 16 + x2 = -13 + 16 Reorder the terms: 16 + 8x + x2 = -13 + 16 Combine like terms: -13 + 16 = 3 16 + 8x + x2 = 3 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + 4)(x + 4) = 3 Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.732050808 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + 4) equal to 1.732050808 and -1.732050808.

Subproblem 1

x + 4 = 1.732050808 Simplifying x + 4 = 1.732050808 Reorder the terms: 4 + x = 1.732050808 Solving 4 + x = 1.732050808 Solving for variable 'x'.
