Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-9 + 3x + x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -9 + 3x + x2 = 0 Solving -9 + 3x + x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '9' to each side of the equation. -9 + 3x + 9 + x2 = 0 + 9 Reorder the terms: -9 + 9 + 3x + x2 = 0 + 9 Combine like terms: -9 + 9 = 0 0 + 3x + x2 = 0 + 9 3x + x2 = 0 + 9 Combine like terms: 0 + 9 = 9 3x + x2 = 9 The x term is 3x. Take half its coefficient (1.5). Square it (2.25) and add it to both sides. Add '2.25' to each side of the equation. 3x + 2.25 + x2 = 9 + 2.25 Reorder the terms: 2.25 + 3x + x2 = 9 + 2.25 Combine like terms: 9 + 2.25 = 11.25 2.25 + 3x + x2 = 11.25 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + 1.5)(x + 1.5) = 11.25 Calculate the square root of the right side: 3.354101966 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + 1.5) equal to 3.354101966 and -3.354101966.
