Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(2 + -7x + 4x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 2 + -7x + 4x2 = 0 Solving 2 + -7x + 4x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Divide all terms by 4 the coefficient of the squared term: Divide each side by '4'. 0.5 + -1.75x + x2 = 0 Move the constant term to the right: Add '-0.5' to each side of the equation. 0.5 + -1.75x + -0.5 + x2 = 0 + -0.5 Reorder the terms: 0.5 + -0.5 + -1.75x + x2 = 0 + -0.5 Combine like terms: 0.5 + -0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + -1.75x + x2 = 0 + -0.5 -1.75x + x2 = 0 + -0.5 Combine like terms: 0 + -0.5 = -0.5 -1.75x + x2 = -0.5 The x term is -1.75x. Take half its coefficient (-0.875). Square it (0.765625) and add it to both sides. Add '0.765625' to each side of the equation. -1.75x + 0.765625 + x2 = -0.5 + 0.765625 Reorder the terms: 0.765625 + -1.75x + x2 = -0.5 + 0.765625 Combine like terms: -0.5 + 0.765625 = 0.265625 0.765625 + -1.75x + x2 = 0.265625 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + -0.875)(x + -0.875) = 0.265625 Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.515388203 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + -0.875) equal to 0.515388203 and -0.515388203.

Subproblem 1
