Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-15 + -9x + x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -15 + -9x + x2 = 0 Solving -15 + -9x + x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '15' to each side of the equation. -15 + -9x + 15 + x2 = 0 + 15 Reorder the terms: -15 + 15 + -9x + x2 = 0 + 15 Combine like terms: -15 + 15 = 0 0 + -9x + x2 = 0 + 15 -9x + x2 = 0 + 15 Combine like terms: 0 + 15 = 15 -9x + x2 = 15 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 = 15 + 20.25 Reorder the terms: 20.25 + -9x + x2 = 15 + 20.25 Combine like terms: 15 + 20.25 = 35.25 20.25 + -9x + x2 = 35.25 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + -4.5)(x + -4.5) = 35.25 Calculate the square root of the right side: 5.937171044 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + -4.5) equal to 5.937171044 and -5.937171044.
