Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(12 + 25x + 10x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 12 + 25x + 10x2 = 0 Solving 12 + 25x + 10x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Divide all terms by 10 the coefficient of the squared term: Divide each side by '10'. 1.2 + 2.5x + x2 = 0.0 Move the constant term to the right: Add '-1.2' to each side of the equation. 1.2 + 2.5x + -1.2 + x2 = 0.0 + -1.2 Reorder the terms: 1.2 + -1.2 + 2.5x + x2 = 0.0 + -1.2 Combine like terms: 1.2 + -1.2 = 0.0 0.0 + 2.5x + x2 = 0.0 + -1.2 2.5x + x2 = 0.0 + -1.2 Combine like terms: 0.0 + -1.2 = -1.2 2.5x + x2 = -1.2 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 = -1.2 + 1.5625 Reorder the terms: 1.5625 + 2.5x + x2 = -1.2 + 1.5625 Combine like terms: -1.2 + 1.5625 = 0.3625 1.5625 + 2.5x + x2 = 0.3625 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + 1.25)(x + 1.25) = 0.3625 Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.602079729 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + 1.25) equal to 0.602079729 and -0.602079729.
