Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(2 + -8x + x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 2 + -8x + x2 = 0 Solving 2 + -8x + x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '-2' to each side of the equation. 2 + -8x + -2 + x2 = 0 + -2 Reorder the terms: 2 + -2 + -8x + x2 = 0 + -2 Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0 0 + -8x + x2 = 0 + -2 -8x + x2 = 0 + -2 Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2 -8x + x2 = -2 The x term is -8x. Take half its coefficient (-4). Square it (16) and add it to both sides. Add '16' to each side of the equation. -8x + 16 + x2 = -2 + 16 Reorder the terms: 16 + -8x + x2 = -2 + 16 Combine like terms: -2 + 16 = 14 16 + -8x + x2 = 14 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + -4)(x + -4) = 14 Calculate the square root of the right side: 3.741657387 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + -4) equal to 3.741657387 and -3.741657387.

Subproblem 1

x + -4 = 3.741657387 Simplifying x + -4 = 3.741657387 Reorder the terms: -4 + x = 3.741657387 Solving -4 + x = 3.741657387 Solving for variable 'x'.
