Solution for -z-z(z-6)=8 equation:


Simplifying
-1z + -1z(z + -6) = 8

Reorder the terms:
-1z + -1z(-6 + z) = 8
-1z + (-6 * -1z + z * -1z) = 8
-1z + (6z + -1z2) = 8

Combine like terms: -1z + 6z = 5z
5z + -1z2 = 8

Solving
5z + -1z2 = 8

Solving for variable 'z'.

Reorder the terms:
-8 + 5z + -1z2 = 8 + -8

Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0
-8 + 5z + -1z2 = 0

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

Divide each side by '-1'.
8 + -5z + z2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-8' to each side of the equation.
8 + -5z + -8 + z2 = 0 + -8

Reorder the terms:
8 + -8 + -5z + z2 = 0 + -8

Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0
0 + -5z + z2 = 0 + -8
-5z + z2 = 0 + -8

Combine like terms: 0 + -8 = -8
-5z + z2 = -8

The z term is -5z.  Take half its coefficient (-2.5).
Square it (6.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '6.25' to each side of the equation.
-5z + 6.25 + z2 = -8 + 6.25

Reorder the terms:
6.25 + -5z + z2 = -8 + 6.25

Combine like terms: -8 + 6.25 = -1.75
6.25 + -5z + z2 = -1.75

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(z + -2.5)(z + -2.5) = -1.75

Can't calculate square root of the right side.

The solution to this equation could not be determined.
