Solution for 2f(f-1)=9 equation:


Simplifying
2f(f + -1) = 9

Reorder the terms:
2f(-1 + f) = 9
(-1 * 2f + f * 2f) = 9
(-2f + 2f2) = 9

Solving
-2f + 2f2 = 9

Solving for variable 'f'.

Reorder the terms:
-9 + -2f + 2f2 = 9 + -9

Combine like terms: 9 + -9 = 0
-9 + -2f + 2f2 = 0

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

Divide each side by '2'.
-4.5 + -1f + f2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '4.5' to each side of the equation.
-4.5 + -1f + 4.5 + f2 = 0 + 4.5

Reorder the terms:
-4.5 + 4.5 + -1f + f2 = 0 + 4.5

Combine like terms: -4.5 + 4.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -1f + f2 = 0 + 4.5
-1f + f2 = 0 + 4.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 4.5 = 4.5
-1f + f2 = 4.5

The f term is -1f.  Take half its coefficient (-0.5).
Square it (0.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
-1f + 0.25 + f2 = 4.5 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -1f + f2 = 4.5 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 4.5 + 0.25 = 4.75
0.25 + -1f + f2 = 4.75

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(f + -0.5)(f + -0.5) = 4.75

Calculate the square root of the right side: 2.179449472

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(f + -0.5) equal to 2.179449472 and -2.179449472.

Subproblem 1

f + -0.5 = 2.179449472 Simplifying f + -0.5 = 2.179449472 Reorder the terms: -0.5 + f = 2.179449472 Solving -0.5 + f = 2.179449472 Solving for variable 'f'. Move all terms containing f to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.5' to each side of the equation. -0.5 + 0.5 + f = 2.179449472 + 0.5 Combine like terms: -0.5 + 0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + f = 2.179449472 + 0.5 f = 2.179449472 + 0.5 Combine like terms: 2.179449472 + 0.5 = 2.679449472 f = 2.679449472 Simplifying f = 2.679449472
