Solution for 2r^2+r+17=0 equation:


Simplifying
2r2 + r + 17 = 0

Reorder the terms:
17 + r + 2r2 = 0

Solving
17 + r + 2r2 = 0

Solving for variable 'r'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
8.5 + 0.5r + r2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-8.5' to each side of the equation.
8.5 + 0.5r + -8.5 + r2 = 0 + -8.5

Reorder the terms:
8.5 + -8.5 + 0.5r + r2 = 0 + -8.5

Combine like terms: 8.5 + -8.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 0.5r + r2 = 0 + -8.5
0.5r + r2 = 0 + -8.5

Combine like terms: 0 + -8.5 = -8.5
0.5r + r2 = -8.5

The r term is r.  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.
0.5r + 0.25 + r2 = -8.5 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + 0.5r + r2 = -8.5 + 0.25

Combine like terms: -8.5 + 0.25 = -8.25
0.25 + 0.5r + r2 = -8.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(r + 0.5)(r + 0.5) = -8.25

Can't calculate square root of the right side.

The solution to this equation could not be determined.
