Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-5 + 9x + x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -5 + 9x + x2 = 0 Solving -5 + 9x + x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '5' to each side of the equation. -5 + 9x + 5 + x2 = 0 + 5 Reorder the terms: -5 + 5 + 9x + x2 = 0 + 5 Combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0 0 + 9x + x2 = 0 + 5 9x + x2 = 0 + 5 Combine like terms: 0 + 5 = 5 9x + x2 = 5 The x term is 9x. Take half its coefficient (4.5). Square it (20.25) and add it to both sides. Add '20.25' to each side of the equation. 9x + 20.25 + x2 = 5 + 20.25 Reorder the terms: 20.25 + 9x + x2 = 5 + 20.25 Combine like terms: 5 + 20.25 = 25.25 20.25 + 9x + x2 = 25.25 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + 4.5)(x + 4.5) = 25.25 Calculate the square root of the right side: 5.024937811 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + 4.5) equal to 5.024937811 and -5.024937811.
