Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-25 + -4x + x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -25 + -4x + x2 = 0 Solving -25 + -4x + x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '25' to each side of the equation. -25 + -4x + 25 + x2 = 0 + 25 Reorder the terms: -25 + 25 + -4x + x2 = 0 + 25 Combine like terms: -25 + 25 = 0 0 + -4x + x2 = 0 + 25 -4x + x2 = 0 + 25 Combine like terms: 0 + 25 = 25 -4x + x2 = 25 The x term is -4x. Take half its coefficient (-2). Square it (4) and add it to both sides. Add '4' to each side of the equation. -4x + 4 + x2 = 25 + 4 Reorder the terms: 4 + -4x + x2 = 25 + 4 Combine like terms: 25 + 4 = 29 4 + -4x + x2 = 29 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + -2)(x + -2) = 29 Calculate the square root of the right side: 5.385164807 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + -2) equal to 5.385164807 and -5.385164807.
