Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(3 + -8x + x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 3 + -8x + x2 = 0 Solving 3 + -8x + x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '-3' to each side of the equation. 3 + -8x + -3 + x2 = 0 + -3 Reorder the terms: 3 + -3 + -8x + x2 = 0 + -3 Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0 0 + -8x + x2 = 0 + -3 -8x + x2 = 0 + -3 Combine like terms: 0 + -3 = -3 -8x + x2 = -3 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 = -3 + 16 Reorder the terms: 16 + -8x + x2 = -3 + 16 Combine like terms: -3 + 16 = 13 16 + -8x + x2 = 13 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + -4)(x + -4) = 13 Calculate the square root of the right side: 3.605551275 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + -4) equal to 3.605551275 and -3.605551275.

Subproblem 1

x + -4 = 3.605551275 Simplifying x + -4 = 3.605551275 Reorder the terms: -4 + x = 3.605551275 Solving -4 + x = 3.605551275 Solving for variable 'x'.
