Solution for m(m-3)=3 equation:


Simplifying
m(m + -3) = 3

Reorder the terms:
m(-3 + m) = 3
(-3 * m + m * m) = 3
(-3m + m2) = 3

Solving
-3m + m2 = 3

Solving for variable 'm'.

Reorder the terms:
-3 + -3m + m2 = 3 + -3

Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0
-3 + -3m + m2 = 0

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '3' to each side of the equation.
-3 + -3m + 3 + m2 = 0 + 3

Reorder the terms:
-3 + 3 + -3m + m2 = 0 + 3

Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0
0 + -3m + m2 = 0 + 3
-3m + m2 = 0 + 3

Combine like terms: 0 + 3 = 3
-3m + m2 = 3

The m term is -3m.  Take half its coefficient (-1.5).
Square it (2.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '2.25' to each side of the equation.
-3m + 2.25 + m2 = 3 + 2.25

Reorder the terms:
2.25 + -3m + m2 = 3 + 2.25

Combine like terms: 3 + 2.25 = 5.25
2.25 + -3m + m2 = 5.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(m + -1.5)(m + -1.5) = 5.25

Calculate the square root of the right side: 2.291287847
