Solution for 0.5m+0.5m(m-0.4)=-1.4 equation:


Simplifying
0.5m + 0.5m(m + -0.4) = -1.4

Reorder the terms:
0.5m + 0.5m(-0.4 + m) = -1.4
0.5m + (-0.4 * 0.5m + m * 0.5m) = -1.4
0.5m + (-0.2m + 0.5m2) = -1.4

Combine like terms: 0.5m + -0.2m = 0.3m
0.3m + 0.5m2 = -1.4

Solving
0.3m + 0.5m2 = -1.4

Solving for variable 'm'.

Reorder the terms:
1.4 + 0.3m + 0.5m2 = -1.4 + 1.4

Combine like terms: -1.4 + 1.4 = 0.0
1.4 + 0.3m + 0.5m2 = 0.0

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

Divide each side by '0.5'.
2.8 + 0.6m + m2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-2.8' to each side of the equation.
2.8 + 0.6m + -2.8 + m2 = 0 + -2.8

Reorder the terms:
2.8 + -2.8 + 0.6m + m2 = 0 + -2.8

Combine like terms: 2.8 + -2.8 = 0.0
0.0 + 0.6m + m2 = 0 + -2.8
0.6m + m2 = 0 + -2.8

Combine like terms: 0 + -2.8 = -2.8
0.6m + m2 = -2.8

The m term is 0.6m.  Take half its coefficient (0.3).
Square it (0.09) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.09' to each side of the equation.
0.6m + 0.09 + m2 = -2.8 + 0.09

Reorder the terms:
0.09 + 0.6m + m2 = -2.8 + 0.09

Combine like terms: -2.8 + 0.09 = -2.71
0.09 + 0.6m + m2 = -2.71

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(m + 0.3)(m + 0.3) = -2.71

Can't calculate square root of the right side.

The solution to this equation could not be determined.
