Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-104 + 3x + x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -104 + 3x + x2 = 0 Solving -104 + 3x + x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '104' to each side of the equation. -104 + 3x + 104 + x2 = 0 + 104 Reorder the terms: -104 + 104 + 3x + x2 = 0 + 104 Combine like terms: -104 + 104 = 0 0 + 3x + x2 = 0 + 104 3x + x2 = 0 + 104 Combine like terms: 0 + 104 = 104 3x + x2 = 104 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 = 104 + 2.25 Reorder the terms: 2.25 + 3x + x2 = 104 + 2.25 Combine like terms: 104 + 2.25 = 106.25 2.25 + 3x + x2 = 106.25 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + 1.5)(x + 1.5) = 106.25 Calculate the square root of the right side: 10.307764064 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + 1.5) equal to 10.307764064 and -10.307764064.
