Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(14 + 13m + 2m2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 14 + 13m + 2m2 = 0 Solving 14 + 13m + 2m2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Divide all terms by 2 the coefficient of the squared term: Divide each side by '2'. 7 + 6.5m + m2 = 0 Move the constant term to the right: Add '-7' to each side of the equation. 7 + 6.5m + -7 + m2 = 0 + -7 Reorder the terms: 7 + -7 + 6.5m + m2 = 0 + -7 Combine like terms: 7 + -7 = 0 0 + 6.5m + m2 = 0 + -7 6.5m + m2 = 0 + -7 Combine like terms: 0 + -7 = -7 6.5m + m2 = -7 The m term is 6.5m. Take half its coefficient (3.25). Square it (10.5625) and add it to both sides. Add '10.5625' to each side of the equation. 6.5m + 10.5625 + m2 = -7 + 10.5625 Reorder the terms: 10.5625 + 6.5m + m2 = -7 + 10.5625 Combine like terms: -7 + 10.5625 = 3.5625 10.5625 + 6.5m + m2 = 3.5625 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (m + 3.25)(m + 3.25) = 3.5625 Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.887458609 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (m + 3.25) equal to 1.887458609 and -1.887458609.

Subproblem 1
