Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-20 + 3x + x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -20 + 3x + x2 = 0 Solving -20 + 3x + x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '20' to each side of the equation. -20 + 3x + 20 + x2 = 0 + 20 Reorder the terms: -20 + 20 + 3x + x2 = 0 + 20 Combine like terms: -20 + 20 = 0 0 + 3x + x2 = 0 + 20 3x + x2 = 0 + 20 Combine like terms: 0 + 20 = 20 3x + x2 = 20 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 = 20 + 2.25 Reorder the terms: 2.25 + 3x + x2 = 20 + 2.25 Combine like terms: 20 + 2.25 = 22.25 2.25 + 3x + x2 = 22.25 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + 1.5)(x + 1.5) = 22.25 Calculate the square root of the right side: 4.716990566 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + 1.5) equal to 4.716990566 and -4.716990566.
