Solution for (3.5-7x)(0.1x+2.3)=0 equation:


Simplifying
(3.5 + -7x)(0.1x + 2.3) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(3.5 + -7x)(2.3 + 0.1x) = 0

Multiply (3.5 + -7x) * (2.3 + 0.1x)
(3.5(2.3 + 0.1x) + -7x * (2.3 + 0.1x)) = 0
((2.3 * 3.5 + 0.1x * 3.5) + -7x * (2.3 + 0.1x)) = 0
((8.05 + 0.35x) + -7x * (2.3 + 0.1x)) = 0
(8.05 + 0.35x + (2.3 * -7x + 0.1x * -7x)) = 0
(8.05 + 0.35x + (-16.1x + -0.7x2)) = 0

Combine like terms: 0.35x + -16.1x = -15.75x
(8.05 + -15.75x + -0.7x2) = 0

Solving
8.05 + -15.75x + -0.7x2 = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-0.7 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-0.7'.
-11.5 + 22.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '11.5' to each side of the equation.
-11.5 + 22.5x + 11.5 + x2 = 0 + 11.5

Reorder the terms:
-11.5 + 11.5 + 22.5x + x2 = 0 + 11.5

Combine like terms: -11.5 + 11.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 22.5x + x2 = 0 + 11.5
22.5x + x2 = 0 + 11.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 11.5 = 11.5
22.5x + x2 = 11.5

The x term is 22.5x.  Take half its coefficient (11.25).
Square it (126.5625) and add it to both sides.

Add '126.5625' to each side of the equation.
22.5x + 126.5625 + x2 = 11.5 + 126.5625

Reorder the terms:
126.5625 + 22.5x + x2 = 11.5 + 126.5625

Combine like terms: 11.5 + 126.5625 = 138.0625
126.5625 + 22.5x + x2 = 138.0625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 11.25)(x + 11.25) = 138.0625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 11.75

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + 11.25) equal to 11.75 and -11.75.

Subproblem 1

x + 11.25 = 11.75 Simplifying x + 11.25 = 11.75 Reorder the terms: 11.25 + x = 11.75 Solving 11.25 + x = 11.75 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-11.25' to each side of the equation. 11.25 + -11.25 + x = 11.75 + -11.25 Combine like terms: 11.25 + -11.25 = 0.00 0.00 + x = 11.75 + -11.25 x = 11.75 + -11.25 Combine like terms: 11.75 + -11.25 = 0.5 x = 0.5 Simplifying x = 0.5

Subproblem 2

x + 11.25 = -11.75 Simplifying x + 11.25 = -11.75 Reorder the terms: 11.25 + x = -11.75 Solving 11.25 + x = -11.75 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-11.25' to each side of the equation. 11.25 + -11.25 + x = -11.75 + -11.25 Combine like terms: 11.25 + -11.25 = 0.00 0.00 + x = -11.75 + -11.25 x = -11.75 + -11.25 Combine like terms: -11.75 + -11.25 = -23 x = -23 Simplifying x = -23

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. x = {0.5, -23}
