Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-1 + -10x + 4x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -1 + -10x + 4x2 = 0 Solving -1 + -10x + 4x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Divide all terms by 4 the coefficient of the squared term: Divide each side by '4'. -0.25 + -2.5x + x2 = 0 Move the constant term to the right: Add '0.25' to each side of the equation. -0.25 + -2.5x + 0.25 + x2 = 0 + 0.25 Reorder the terms: -0.25 + 0.25 + -2.5x + x2 = 0 + 0.25 Combine like terms: -0.25 + 0.25 = 0.00 0.00 + -2.5x + x2 = 0 + 0.25 -2.5x + x2 = 0 + 0.25 Combine like terms: 0 + 0.25 = 0.25 -2.5x + x2 = 0.25 The x term is -2.5x. Take half its coefficient (-1.25). Square it (1.5625) and add it to both sides. Add '1.5625' to each side of the equation. -2.5x + 1.5625 + x2 = 0.25 + 1.5625 Reorder the terms: 1.5625 + -2.5x + x2 = 0.25 + 1.5625 Combine like terms: 0.25 + 1.5625 = 1.8125 1.5625 + -2.5x + x2 = 1.8125 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + -1.25)(x + -1.25) = 1.8125 Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.346291202 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + -1.25) equal to 1.346291202 and -1.346291202.

Subproblem 1

x + -1.25 = 1.346291202 Simplifying x + -1.25 = 1.346291202 Reorder the terms: -1.25 + x = 1.346291202 Solving -1.25 + x = 1.346291202 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '1.25' to each side of the equation. -1.25 + 1.25 + x = 1.346291202 + 1.25 Combine like terms: -1.25 + 1.25 = 0.00 0.00 + x = 1.346291202 + 1.25 x = 1.346291202 + 1.25 Combine like terms: 1.346291202 + 1.25 = 2.596291202 x = 2.596291202 Simplifying x = 2.596291202

Subproblem 2

x + -1.25 = -1.346291202 Simplifying x + -1.25 = -1.346291202 Reorder the terms: -1.25 + x = -1.346291202 Solving -1.25 + x = -1.346291202 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '1.25' to each side of the equation. -1.25 + 1.25 + x = -1.346291202 + 1.25 Combine like terms: -1.25 + 1.25 = 0.00 0.00 + x = -1.346291202 + 1.25 x = -1.346291202 + 1.25 Combine like terms: -1.346291202 + 1.25 = -0.096291202 x = -0.096291202 Simplifying x = -0.096291202
