Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-20 + 4k + k2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -20 + 4k + k2 = 0 Solving -20 + 4k + k2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '20' to each side of the equation. -20 + 4k + 20 + k2 = 0 + 20 Reorder the terms: -20 + 20 + 4k + k2 = 0 + 20 Combine like terms: -20 + 20 = 0 0 + 4k + k2 = 0 + 20 4k + k2 = 0 + 20 Combine like terms: 0 + 20 = 20 4k + k2 = 20 The k term is 4k. Take half its coefficient (2). Square it (4) and add it to both sides. Add '4' to each side of the equation. 4k + 4 + k2 = 20 + 4 Reorder the terms: 4 + 4k + k2 = 20 + 4 Combine like terms: 20 + 4 = 24 4 + 4k + k2 = 24 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (k + 2)(k + 2) = 24 Calculate the square root of the right side: 4.898979486 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (k + 2) equal to 4.898979486 and -4.898979486.

Subproblem 1

k + 2 = 4.898979486 Simplifying k + 2 = 4.898979486 Reorder the terms: 2 + k = 4.898979486 Solving 2 + k = 4.898979486 Solving for variable 'k'.
