Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-10 + -6x + x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -10 + -6x + x2 = 0 Solving -10 + -6x + x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '10' to each side of the equation. -10 + -6x + 10 + x2 = 0 + 10 Reorder the terms: -10 + 10 + -6x + x2 = 0 + 10 Combine like terms: -10 + 10 = 0 0 + -6x + x2 = 0 + 10 -6x + x2 = 0 + 10 Combine like terms: 0 + 10 = 10 -6x + x2 = 10 The x term is -6x. Take half its coefficient (-3). Square it (9) and add it to both sides. Add '9' to each side of the equation. -6x + 9 + x2 = 10 + 9 Reorder the terms: 9 + -6x + x2 = 10 + 9 Combine like terms: 10 + 9 = 19 9 + -6x + x2 = 19 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + -3)(x + -3) = 19 Calculate the square root of the right side: 4.358898944 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + -3) equal to 4.358898944 and -4.358898944.
