Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-15 + -16a + 20a2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -15 + -16a + 20a2 = 0 Solving -15 + -16a + 20a2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Divide all terms by 20 the coefficient of the squared term: Divide each side by '20'. -0.75 + -0.8a + a2 = 0.0 Move the constant term to the right: Add '0.75' to each side of the equation. -0.75 + -0.8a + 0.75 + a2 = 0.0 + 0.75 Reorder the terms: -0.75 + 0.75 + -0.8a + a2 = 0.0 + 0.75 Combine like terms: -0.75 + 0.75 = 0.00 0.00 + -0.8a + a2 = 0.0 + 0.75 -0.8a + a2 = 0.0 + 0.75 Combine like terms: 0.0 + 0.75 = 0.75 -0.8a + a2 = 0.75 The a term is -0.8a. Take half its coefficient (-0.4). Square it (0.16) and add it to both sides. Add '0.16' to each side of the equation. -0.8a + 0.16 + a2 = 0.75 + 0.16 Reorder the terms: 0.16 + -0.8a + a2 = 0.75 + 0.16 Combine like terms: 0.75 + 0.16 = 0.91 0.16 + -0.8a + a2 = 0.91 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (a + -0.4)(a + -0.4) = 0.91 Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.953939201 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (a + -0.4) equal to 0.953939201 and -0.953939201.

Subproblem 1

a + -0.4 = 0.953939201 Simplifying a + -0.4 = 0.953939201 Reorder the terms: -0.4 + a = 0.953939201 Solving -0.4 + a = 0.953939201 Solving for variable 'a'. Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.4' to each side of the equation. -0.4 + 0.4 + a = 0.953939201 + 0.4 Combine like terms: -0.4 + 0.4 = 0.0 0.0 + a = 0.953939201 + 0.4 a = 0.953939201 + 0.4 Combine like terms: 0.953939201 + 0.4 = 1.353939201 a = 1.353939201 Simplifying a = 1.353939201

Subproblem 2

a + -0.4 = -0.953939201 Simplifying a + -0.4 = -0.953939201 Reorder the terms: -0.4 + a = -0.953939201 Solving -0.4 + a = -0.953939201 Solving for variable 'a'. Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.4' to each side of the equation. -0.4 + 0.4 + a = -0.953939201 + 0.4 Combine like terms: -0.4 + 0.4 = 0.0 0.0 + a = -0.953939201 + 0.4 a = -0.953939201 + 0.4 Combine like terms: -0.953939201 + 0.4 = -0.553939201 a = -0.553939201 Simplifying a = -0.553939201
