Solution for (u-2)(u-2)=2u^2+2-u equation:


Simplifying
(u + -2)(u + -2) = 2u2 + 2 + -1u

Reorder the terms:
(-2 + u)(u + -2) = 2u2 + 2 + -1u

Reorder the terms:
(-2 + u)(-2 + u) = 2u2 + 2 + -1u

Multiply (-2 + u) * (-2 + u)
(-2(-2 + u) + u(-2 + u)) = 2u2 + 2 + -1u
((-2 * -2 + u * -2) + u(-2 + u)) = 2u2 + 2 + -1u
((4 + -2u) + u(-2 + u)) = 2u2 + 2 + -1u
(4 + -2u + (-2 * u + u * u)) = 2u2 + 2 + -1u
(4 + -2u + (-2u + u2)) = 2u2 + 2 + -1u

Combine like terms: -2u + -2u = -4u
(4 + -4u + u2) = 2u2 + 2 + -1u

Reorder the terms:
4 + -4u + u2 = 2 + -1u + 2u2

Solving
4 + -4u + u2 = 2 + -1u + 2u2

Solving for variable 'u'.

Reorder the terms:
4 + -2 + -4u + u + u2 + -2u2 = 2 + -1u + 2u2 + -2 + u + -2u2

Combine like terms: 4 + -2 = 2
2 + -4u + u + u2 + -2u2 = 2 + -1u + 2u2 + -2 + u + -2u2

Combine like terms: -4u + u = -3u
2 + -3u + u2 + -2u2 = 2 + -1u + 2u2 + -2 + u + -2u2

Combine like terms: u2 + -2u2 = -1u2
2 + -3u + -1u2 = 2 + -1u + 2u2 + -2 + u + -2u2

Reorder the terms:
2 + -3u + -1u2 = 2 + -2 + -1u + u + 2u2 + -2u2

Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0
2 + -3u + -1u2 = 0 + -1u + u + 2u2 + -2u2
2 + -3u + -1u2 = -1u + u + 2u2 + -2u2

Combine like terms: -1u + u = 0
2 + -3u + -1u2 = 0 + 2u2 + -2u2
2 + -3u + -1u2 = 2u2 + -2u2

Combine like terms: 2u2 + -2u2 = 0
2 + -3u + -1u2 = 0

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-1 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-1'.
-2 + 3u + u2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '2' to each side of the equation.
-2 + 3u + 2 + u2 = 0 + 2

Reorder the terms:
-2 + 2 + 3u + u2 = 0 + 2

Combine like terms: -2 + 2 = 0
0 + 3u + u2 = 0 + 2
3u + u2 = 0 + 2

Combine like terms: 0 + 2 = 2
3u + u2 = 2

The u term is 3u.  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.
3u + 2.25 + u2 = 2 + 2.25

Reorder the terms:
2.25 + 3u + u2 = 2 + 2.25

Combine like terms: 2 + 2.25 = 4.25
2.25 + 3u + u2 = 4.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(u + 1.5)(u + 1.5) = 4.25

Calculate the square root of the right side: 2.061552813

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(u + 1.5) equal to 2.061552813 and -2.061552813.

Subproblem 1

u + 1.5 = 2.061552813 Simplifying u + 1.5 = 2.061552813 Reorder the terms: 1.5 + u = 2.061552813 Solving 1.5 + u = 2.061552813 Solving for variable 'u'. Move all terms containing u to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1.5' to each side of the equation. 1.5 + -1.5 + u = 2.061552813 + -1.5 Combine like terms: 1.5 + -1.5 = 0.0 0.0 + u = 2.061552813 + -1.5 u = 2.061552813 + -1.5 Combine like terms: 2.061552813 + -1.5 = 0.561552813 u = 0.561552813 Simplifying u = 0.561552813

Subproblem 2

u + 1.5 = -2.061552813 Simplifying u + 1.5 = -2.061552813 Reorder the terms: 1.5 + u = -2.061552813 Solving 1.5 + u = -2.061552813 Solving for variable 'u'. Move all terms containing u to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1.5' to each side of the equation. 1.5 + -1.5 + u = -2.061552813 + -1.5 Combine like terms: 1.5 + -1.5 = 0.0 0.0 + u = -2.061552813 + -1.5 u = -2.061552813 + -1.5 Combine like terms: -2.061552813 + -1.5 = -3.561552813 u = -3.561552813 Simplifying u = -3.561552813

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. u = {0.561552813, -3.561552813}
