Solution for (2x-0.1)(x+2.4)= equation:


Simplifying
(2x + -0.1)(x + 2.4) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-0.1 + 2x)(x + 2.4) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-0.1 + 2x)(2.4 + x) = 0

Multiply (-0.1 + 2x) * (2.4 + x)
(-0.1(2.4 + x) + 2x * (2.4 + x)) = 0
((2.4 * -0.1 + x * -0.1) + 2x * (2.4 + x)) = 0
((-0.24 + -0.1x) + 2x * (2.4 + x)) = 0
(-0.24 + -0.1x + (2.4 * 2x + x * 2x)) = 0
(-0.24 + -0.1x + (4.8x + 2x2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -0.1x + 4.8x = 4.7x
(-0.24 + 4.7x + 2x2) = 0

Solving
-0.24 + 4.7x + 2x2 = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
2 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '2'.
-0.12 + 2.35x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.12' to each side of the equation.
-0.12 + 2.35x + 0.12 + x2 = 0 + 0.12

Reorder the terms:
-0.12 + 0.12 + 2.35x + x2 = 0 + 0.12

Combine like terms: -0.12 + 0.12 = 0.00
0.00 + 2.35x + x2 = 0 + 0.12
2.35x + x2 = 0 + 0.12

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.12 = 0.12
2.35x + x2 = 0.12

The x term is 2.35x.  Take half its coefficient (1.175).
Square it (1.380625) and add it to both sides.

Add '1.380625' to each side of the equation.
2.35x + 1.380625 + x2 = 0.12 + 1.380625

Reorder the terms:
1.380625 + 2.35x + x2 = 0.12 + 1.380625

Combine like terms: 0.12 + 1.380625 = 1.500625
1.380625 + 2.35x + x2 = 1.500625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 1.175)(x + 1.175) = 1.500625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.225

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + 1.175) equal to 1.225 and -1.225.

Subproblem 1

x + 1.175 = 1.225 Simplifying x + 1.175 = 1.225 Reorder the terms: 1.175 + x = 1.225 Solving 1.175 + x = 1.225 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1.175' to each side of the equation. 1.175 + -1.175 + x = 1.225 + -1.175 Combine like terms: 1.175 + -1.175 = 0.000 0.000 + x = 1.225 + -1.175 x = 1.225 + -1.175 Combine like terms: 1.225 + -1.175 = 0.05 x = 0.05 Simplifying x = 0.05

Subproblem 2

x + 1.175 = -1.225 Simplifying x + 1.175 = -1.225 Reorder the terms: 1.175 + x = -1.225 Solving 1.175 + x = -1.225 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1.175' to each side of the equation. 1.175 + -1.175 + x = -1.225 + -1.175 Combine like terms: 1.175 + -1.175 = 0.000 0.000 + x = -1.225 + -1.175 x = -1.225 + -1.175 Combine like terms: -1.225 + -1.175 = -2.4 x = -2.4 Simplifying x = -2.4

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. x = {0.05, -2.4}
