Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(6 + -19x + x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 6 + -19x + x2 = 0 Solving 6 + -19x + x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '-6' to each side of the equation. 6 + -19x + -6 + x2 = 0 + -6 Reorder the terms: 6 + -6 + -19x + x2 = 0 + -6 Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0 0 + -19x + x2 = 0 + -6 -19x + x2 = 0 + -6 Combine like terms: 0 + -6 = -6 -19x + x2 = -6 The x term is -19x. Take half its coefficient (-9.5). Square it (90.25) and add it to both sides. Add '90.25' to each side of the equation. -19x + 90.25 + x2 = -6 + 90.25 Reorder the terms: 90.25 + -19x + x2 = -6 + 90.25 Combine like terms: -6 + 90.25 = 84.25 90.25 + -19x + x2 = 84.25 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + -9.5)(x + -9.5) = 84.25 Calculate the square root of the right side: 9.178779875 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + -9.5) equal to 9.178779875 and -9.178779875.
