Solution for 2v^2+5v+1=0 equation:


Simplifying
2v2 + 5v + 1 = 0

Reorder the terms:
1 + 5v + 2v2 = 0

Solving
1 + 5v + 2v2 = 0

Solving for variable 'v'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
0.5 + 2.5v + v2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.5' to each side of the equation.
0.5 + 2.5v + -0.5 + v2 = 0 + -0.5

Reorder the terms:
0.5 + -0.5 + 2.5v + v2 = 0 + -0.5

Combine like terms: 0.5 + -0.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 2.5v + v2 = 0 + -0.5
2.5v + v2 = 0 + -0.5

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.5 = -0.5
2.5v + v2 = -0.5

The v term is 2.5v.  Take half its coefficient (1.25).
Square it (1.5625) and add it to both sides.

Add '1.5625' to each side of the equation.
2.5v + 1.5625 + v2 = -0.5 + 1.5625

Reorder the terms:
1.5625 + 2.5v + v2 = -0.5 + 1.5625

Combine like terms: -0.5 + 1.5625 = 1.0625
1.5625 + 2.5v + v2 = 1.0625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(v + 1.25)(v + 1.25) = 1.0625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.030776406

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(v + 1.25) equal to 1.030776406 and -1.030776406.

Subproblem 1

v + 1.25 = 1.030776406 Simplifying v + 1.25 = 1.030776406 Reorder the terms: 1.25 + v = 1.030776406 Solving 1.25 + v = 1.030776406 Solving for variable 'v'. Move all terms containing v to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1.25' to each side of the equation. 1.25 + -1.25 + v = 1.030776406 + -1.25 Combine like terms: 1.25 + -1.25 = 0.00 0.00 + v = 1.030776406 + -1.25 v = 1.030776406 + -1.25 Combine like terms: 1.030776406 + -1.25 = -0.219223594 v = -0.219223594 Simplifying v = -0.219223594

Subproblem 2

v + 1.25 = -1.030776406 Simplifying v + 1.25 = -1.030776406 Reorder the terms: 1.25 + v = -1.030776406 Solving 1.25 + v = -1.030776406 Solving for variable 'v'. Move all terms containing v to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1.25' to each side of the equation. 1.25 + -1.25 + v = -1.030776406 + -1.25 Combine like terms: 1.25 + -1.25 = 0.00 0.00 + v = -1.030776406 + -1.25 v = -1.030776406 + -1.25 Combine like terms: -1.030776406 + -1.25 = -2.280776406 v = -2.280776406 Simplifying v = -2.280776406

Solution
