Solution for (1.5-x)(1-x)=0 equation:


Simplifying
(1.5 + -1x)(1 + -1x) = 0

Multiply (1.5 + -1x) * (1 + -1x)
(1.5(1 + -1x) + -1x * (1 + -1x)) = 0
((1 * 1.5 + -1x * 1.5) + -1x * (1 + -1x)) = 0
((1.5 + -1.5x) + -1x * (1 + -1x)) = 0
(1.5 + -1.5x + (1 * -1x + -1x * -1x)) = 0
(1.5 + -1.5x + (-1x + 1x2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -1.5x + -1x = -2.5x
(1.5 + -2.5x + 1x2) = 0

Solving
1.5 + -2.5x + 1x2 = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-1.5' to each side of the equation.
1.5 + -2.5x + -1.5 + x2 = 0 + -1.5

Reorder the terms:
1.5 + -1.5 + -2.5x + x2 = 0 + -1.5

Combine like terms: 1.5 + -1.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -2.5x + x2 = 0 + -1.5
-2.5x + x2 = 0 + -1.5

Combine like terms: 0 + -1.5 = -1.5
-2.5x + x2 = -1.5

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 = -1.5 + 1.5625

Reorder the terms:
1.5625 + -2.5x + x2 = -1.5 + 1.5625

Combine like terms: -1.5 + 1.5625 = 0.0625
1.5625 + -2.5x + x2 = 0.0625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + -1.25)(x + -1.25) = 0.0625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.25

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + -1.25) equal to 0.25 and -0.25.

Subproblem 1

x + -1.25 = 0.25 Simplifying x + -1.25 = 0.25 Reorder the terms: -1.25 + x = 0.25 Solving -1.25 + x = 0.25 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '1.25' to each side of the equation. -1.25 + 1.25 + x = 0.25 + 1.25 Combine like terms: -1.25 + 1.25 = 0.00 0.00 + x = 0.25 + 1.25 x = 0.25 + 1.25 Combine like terms: 0.25 + 1.25 = 1.5 x = 1.5 Simplifying x = 1.5

Subproblem 2

x + -1.25 = -0.25 Simplifying x + -1.25 = -0.25 Reorder the terms: -1.25 + x = -0.25 Solving -1.25 + x = -0.25 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '1.25' to each side of the equation. -1.25 + 1.25 + x = -0.25 + 1.25 Combine like terms: -1.25 + 1.25 = 0.00 0.00 + x = -0.25 + 1.25 x = -0.25 + 1.25 Combine like terms: -0.25 + 1.25 = 1 x = 1 Simplifying x = 1

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. x = {1.5, 1}
