Solution for 2w^2=w-55 equation:


Simplifying
2w2 = w + -55

Reorder the terms:
2w2 = -55 + w

Solving
2w2 = -55 + w

Solving for variable 'w'.

Reorder the terms:
55 + -1w + 2w2 = -55 + w + 55 + -1w

Reorder the terms:
55 + -1w + 2w2 = -55 + 55 + w + -1w

Combine like terms: -55 + 55 = 0
55 + -1w + 2w2 = 0 + w + -1w
55 + -1w + 2w2 = w + -1w

Combine like terms: w + -1w = 0
55 + -1w + 2w2 = 0

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

Divide each side by '2'.
27.5 + -0.5w + w2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-27.5' to each side of the equation.
27.5 + -0.5w + -27.5 + w2 = 0 + -27.5

Reorder the terms:
27.5 + -27.5 + -0.5w + w2 = 0 + -27.5

Combine like terms: 27.5 + -27.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -0.5w + w2 = 0 + -27.5
-0.5w + w2 = 0 + -27.5

Combine like terms: 0 + -27.5 = -27.5
-0.5w + w2 = -27.5

The w term is -0.5w.  Take half its coefficient (-0.25).
Square it (0.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.0625' to each side of the equation.
-0.5w + 0.0625 + w2 = -27.5 + 0.0625

Reorder the terms:
0.0625 + -0.5w + w2 = -27.5 + 0.0625

Combine like terms: -27.5 + 0.0625 = -27.4375
0.0625 + -0.5w + w2 = -27.4375

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(w + -0.25)(w + -0.25) = -27.4375

Can't calculate square root of the right side.

The solution to this equation could not be determined.
