Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(37 + 67x + 20x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 37 + 67x + 20x2 = 0 Solving 37 + 67x + 20x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Divide all terms by 20 the coefficient of the squared term: Divide each side by '20'. 1.85 + 3.35x + x2 = 0.0 Move the constant term to the right: Add '-1.85' to each side of the equation. 1.85 + 3.35x + -1.85 + x2 = 0.0 + -1.85 Reorder the terms: 1.85 + -1.85 + 3.35x + x2 = 0.0 + -1.85 Combine like terms: 1.85 + -1.85 = 0.00 0.00 + 3.35x + x2 = 0.0 + -1.85 3.35x + x2 = 0.0 + -1.85 Combine like terms: 0.0 + -1.85 = -1.85 3.35x + x2 = -1.85 The x term is 3.35x. Take half its coefficient (1.675). Square it (2.805625) and add it to both sides. Add '2.805625' to each side of the equation. 3.35x + 2.805625 + x2 = -1.85 + 2.805625 Reorder the terms: 2.805625 + 3.35x + x2 = -1.85 + 2.805625 Combine like terms: -1.85 + 2.805625 = 0.955625 2.805625 + 3.35x + x2 = 0.955625 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + 1.675)(x + 1.675) = 0.955625 Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.97756074 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + 1.675) equal to 0.97756074 and -0.97756074.

Subproblem 1
