Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-140 + -3x + x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -140 + -3x + x2 = 0 Solving -140 + -3x + x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '140' to each side of the equation. -140 + -3x + 140 + x2 = 0 + 140 Reorder the terms: -140 + 140 + -3x + x2 = 0 + 140 Combine like terms: -140 + 140 = 0 0 + -3x + x2 = 0 + 140 -3x + x2 = 0 + 140 Combine like terms: 0 + 140 = 140 -3x + x2 = 140 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 = 140 + 2.25 Reorder the terms: 2.25 + -3x + x2 = 140 + 2.25 Combine like terms: 140 + 2.25 = 142.25 2.25 + -3x + x2 = 142.25 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + -1.5)(x + -1.5) = 142.25 Calculate the square root of the right side: 11.926860442 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + -1.5) equal to 11.926860442 and -11.926860442.
