Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-1 + -8m + 4m2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -1 + -8m + 4m2 = 0 Solving -1 + -8m + 4m2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Divide all terms by 4 the coefficient of the squared term: Divide each side by '4'. -0.25 + -2m + m2 = 0 Move the constant term to the right: Add '0.25' to each side of the equation. -0.25 + -2m + 0.25 + m2 = 0 + 0.25 Reorder the terms: -0.25 + 0.25 + -2m + m2 = 0 + 0.25 Combine like terms: -0.25 + 0.25 = 0.00 0.00 + -2m + m2 = 0 + 0.25 -2m + m2 = 0 + 0.25 Combine like terms: 0 + 0.25 = 0.25 -2m + m2 = 0.25 The m term is -2m. Take half its coefficient (-1). Square it (1) and add it to both sides. Add '1' to each side of the equation. -2m + 1 + m2 = 0.25 + 1 Reorder the terms: 1 + -2m + m2 = 0.25 + 1 Combine like terms: 0.25 + 1 = 1.25 1 + -2m + m2 = 1.25 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (m + -1)(m + -1) = 1.25 Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.118033989 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (m + -1) equal to 1.118033989 and -1.118033989.

Subproblem 1

m + -1 = 1.118033989 Simplifying m + -1 = 1.118033989 Reorder the terms: -1 + m = 1.118033989 Solving -1 + m = 1.118033989 Solving for variable 'm'.
