Solution for 2m^2-4m+5=0 equation:


Simplifying
2m2 + -4m + 5 = 0

Reorder the terms:
5 + -4m + 2m2 = 0

Solving
5 + -4m + 2m2 = 0

Solving for variable 'm'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
2.5 + -2m + m2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-2.5' to each side of the equation.
2.5 + -2m + -2.5 + m2 = 0 + -2.5

Reorder the terms:
2.5 + -2.5 + -2m + m2 = 0 + -2.5

Combine like terms: 2.5 + -2.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -2m + m2 = 0 + -2.5
-2m + m2 = 0 + -2.5

Combine like terms: 0 + -2.5 = -2.5
-2m + m2 = -2.5

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

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
-2m + 1 + m2 = -2.5 + 1

Reorder the terms:
1 + -2m + m2 = -2.5 + 1

Combine like terms: -2.5 + 1 = -1.5
1 + -2m + m2 = -1.5

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(m + -1)(m + -1) = -1.5
