Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-5 + -3y + y2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -5 + -3y + y2 = 0 Solving -5 + -3y + y2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '5' to each side of the equation. -5 + -3y + 5 + y2 = 0 + 5 Reorder the terms: -5 + 5 + -3y + y2 = 0 + 5 Combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0 0 + -3y + y2 = 0 + 5 -3y + y2 = 0 + 5 Combine like terms: 0 + 5 = 5 -3y + y2 = 5 The y term is -3y. 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. -3y + 2.25 + y2 = 5 + 2.25 Reorder the terms: 2.25 + -3y + y2 = 5 + 2.25 Combine like terms: 5 + 2.25 = 7.25 2.25 + -3y + y2 = 7.25 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (y + -1.5)(y + -1.5) = 7.25 Calculate the square root of the right side: 2.692582404 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (y + -1.5) equal to 2.692582404 and -2.692582404.

Subproblem 1

y + -1.5 = 2.692582404 Simplifying y + -1.5 = 2.692582404 Reorder the terms: -1.5 + y = 2.692582404 Solving -1.5 + y = 2.692582404 Solving for variable 'y'. Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '1.5' to each side of the equation. -1.5 + 1.5 + y = 2.692582404 + 1.5 Combine like terms: -1.5 + 1.5 = 0.0 0.0 + y = 2.692582404 + 1.5 y = 2.692582404 + 1.5 Combine like terms: 2.692582404 + 1.5 = 4.192582404 y = 4.192582404 Simplifying y = 4.192582404

Subproblem 2

y + -1.5 = -2.692582404 Simplifying y + -1.5 = -2.692582404 Reorder the terms: -1.5 + y = -2.692582404 Solving -1.5 + y = -2.692582404 Solving for variable 'y'. Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '1.5' to each side of the equation. -1.5 + 1.5 + y = -2.692582404 + 1.5 Combine like terms: -1.5 + 1.5 = 0.0 0.0 + y = -2.692582404 + 1.5 y = -2.692582404 + 1.5 Combine like terms: -2.692582404 + 1.5 = -1.192582404 y = -1.192582404 Simplifying y = -1.192582404
