Solution for 24=.5(h^2+2h) equation:


Simplifying
24 = 0.5(h2 + 2h)

Reorder the terms:
24 = 0.5(2h + h2)
24 = (2h * 0.5 + h2 * 0.5)
24 = (1h + 0.5h2)

Solving
24 = 1h + 0.5h2

Solving for variable 'h'.

Reorder the terms:
24 + -1h + -0.5h2 = 1h + -1h + 0.5h2 + -0.5h2

Combine like terms: 1h + -1h = 0
24 + -1h + -0.5h2 = 0 + 0.5h2 + -0.5h2
24 + -1h + -0.5h2 = 0.5h2 + -0.5h2

Combine like terms: 0.5h2 + -0.5h2 = 0.0
24 + -1h + -0.5h2 = 0.0

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

Divide each side by '-0.5'.
-48 + 2h + h2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '48' to each side of the equation.
-48 + 2h + 48 + h2 = 0 + 48

Reorder the terms:
-48 + 48 + 2h + h2 = 0 + 48

Combine like terms: -48 + 48 = 0
0 + 2h + h2 = 0 + 48
2h + h2 = 0 + 48

Combine like terms: 0 + 48 = 48
2h + h2 = 48

The h term is 2h.  Take half its coefficient (1).
Square it (1) and add it to both sides.

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
2h + 1 + h2 = 48 + 1

Reorder the terms:
1 + 2h + h2 = 48 + 1

Combine like terms: 48 + 1 = 49
1 + 2h + h2 = 49

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(h + 1)(h + 1) = 49

Calculate the square root of the right side: 7

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(h + 1) equal to 7 and -7.

Subproblem 1

h + 1 = 7 Simplifying h + 1 = 7 Reorder the terms: 1 + h = 7 Solving 1 + h = 7 Solving for variable 'h'. Move all terms containing h to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1' to each side of the equation. 1 + -1 + h = 7 + -1 Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0 0 + h = 7 + -1 h = 7 + -1 Combine like terms: 7 + -1 = 6 h = 6 Simplifying h = 6

Subproblem 2

h + 1 = -7 Simplifying h + 1 = -7 Reorder the terms: 1 + h = -7 Solving 1 + h = -7 Solving for variable 'h'. Move all terms containing h to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1' to each side of the equation. 1 + -1 + h = -7 + -1 Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0 0 + h = -7 + -1 h = -7 + -1 Combine like terms: -7 + -1 = -8 h = -8 Simplifying h = -8

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. h = {6, -8}
