Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-18 + -2x + x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -18 + -2x + x2 = 0 Solving -18 + -2x + x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '18' to each side of the equation. -18 + -2x + 18 + x2 = 0 + 18 Reorder the terms: -18 + 18 + -2x + x2 = 0 + 18 Combine like terms: -18 + 18 = 0 0 + -2x + x2 = 0 + 18 -2x + x2 = 0 + 18 Combine like terms: 0 + 18 = 18 -2x + x2 = 18 The x term is -2x. Take half its coefficient (-1). Square it (1) and add it to both sides. Add '1' to each side of the equation. -2x + 1 + x2 = 18 + 1 Reorder the terms: 1 + -2x + x2 = 18 + 1 Combine like terms: 18 + 1 = 19 1 + -2x + x2 = 19 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + -1)(x + -1) = 19 Calculate the square root of the right side: 4.358898944 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + -1) equal to 4.358898944 and -4.358898944.
