Solution for 27=(x^2-.4x) equation:


Simplifying
27 = (x2 + -0.4x)

Reorder the terms:
27 = (-0.4x + x2)

Remove parenthesis around (-0.4x + x2)
27 = -0.4x + x2

Solving
27 = -0.4x + x2

Solving for variable 'x'.

Reorder the terms:
27 + 0.4x + -1x2 = -0.4x + 0.4x + x2 + -1x2

Combine like terms: -0.4x + 0.4x = 0.0
27 + 0.4x + -1x2 = 0.0 + x2 + -1x2
27 + 0.4x + -1x2 = x2 + -1x2

Combine like terms: x2 + -1x2 = 0
27 + 0.4x + -1x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '27' to each side of the equation.
-27 + -0.4x + 27 + x2 = 0 + 27

Reorder the terms:
-27 + 27 + -0.4x + x2 = 0 + 27

Combine like terms: -27 + 27 = 0
0 + -0.4x + x2 = 0 + 27
-0.4x + x2 = 0 + 27

Combine like terms: 0 + 27 = 27
-0.4x + x2 = 27

The x term is -0.4x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.2).
Square it (0.04) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.04' to each side of the equation.
-0.4x + 0.04 + x2 = 27 + 0.04

Reorder the terms:
0.04 + -0.4x + x2 = 27 + 0.04

Combine like terms: 27 + 0.04 = 27.04
0.04 + -0.4x + x2 = 27.04

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + -0.2) equal to 5.2 and -5.2.

Subproblem 1

x + -0.2 = 5.2 Simplifying x + -0.2 = 5.2 Reorder the terms: -0.2 + x = 5.2 Solving -0.2 + x = 5.2 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.2' to each side of the equation. -0.2 + 0.2 + x = 5.2 + 0.2 Combine like terms: -0.2 + 0.2 = 0.0 0.0 + x = 5.2 + 0.2 x = 5.2 + 0.2 Combine like terms: 5.2 + 0.2 = 5.4 x = 5.4 Simplifying x = 5.4

Subproblem 2

x + -0.2 = -5.2 Simplifying x + -0.2 = -5.2 Reorder the terms: -0.2 + x = -5.2 Solving -0.2 + x = -5.2 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.2' to each side of the equation. -0.2 + 0.2 + x = -5.2 + 0.2 Combine like terms: -0.2 + 0.2 = 0.0 0.0 + x = -5.2 + 0.2 x = -5.2 + 0.2 Combine like terms: -5.2 + 0.2 = -5 x = -5 Simplifying x = -5

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. x = {5.4, -5}
