Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(1 + 5x2 + x4)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 1 + 5x2 + x4 = 0 Solving 1 + 5x2 + x4 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '-1' to each side of the equation. 1 + 5x2 + -1 + x4 = 0 + -1 Reorder the terms: 1 + -1 + 5x2 + x4 = 0 + -1 Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0 0 + 5x2 + x4 = 0 + -1 5x2 + x4 = 0 + -1 Combine like terms: 0 + -1 = -1 5x2 + x4 = -1 The x term is 5x2. Take half its coefficient (2.5). Square it (6.25) and add it to both sides. Add '6.25' to each side of the equation. 5x2 + 6.25 + x4 = -1 + 6.25 Reorder the terms: 6.25 + 5x2 + x4 = -1 + 6.25 Combine like terms: -1 + 6.25 = 5.25 6.25 + 5x2 + x4 = 5.25 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x2 + 2.5)(x2 + 2.5) = 5.25 Calculate the square root of the right side: 2.291287847 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x2 + 2.5) equal to 2.291287847 and -2.291287847.
