Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-4 + 5x + x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -4 + 5x + x2 = 0 Solving -4 + 5x + x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '4' to each side of the equation. -4 + 5x + 4 + x2 = 0 + 4 Reorder the terms: -4 + 4 + 5x + x2 = 0 + 4 Combine like terms: -4 + 4 = 0 0 + 5x + x2 = 0 + 4 5x + x2 = 0 + 4 Combine like terms: 0 + 4 = 4 5x + x2 = 4 The x term is 5x. Take half its coefficient (2.5). Square it (6.25) and add it to both sides. Add '6.25' to each side of the equation. 5x + 6.25 + x2 = 4 + 6.25 Reorder the terms: 6.25 + 5x + x2 = 4 + 6.25 Combine like terms: 4 + 6.25 = 10.25 6.25 + 5x + x2 = 10.25 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + 2.5)(x + 2.5) = 10.25 Calculate the square root of the right side: 3.201562119 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + 2.5) equal to 3.201562119 and -3.201562119.
