2y=1/y

Solution for 2y=1/y equation:

2y=1/y

We move all terms to the left:

2y-(1/y)=0


Domain of the equation: y)!=0

y!=0/1

y!=0

y∈R


We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

2y-(+1/y)=0

We get rid of parentheses

2y-1/y=0

We multiply all the terms by the denominator


2y*y-1=0

Wy multiply elements

2y^2-1=0

a = 2; b = 0; c = -1;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 02-4·2·(-1)
Δ = 8
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{8}=\sqrt{4*2}=\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{2}=2\sqrt{2}$
$y_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)-2\sqrt{2}}{2*2}=\frac{0-2\sqrt{2}}{4}
=-\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{4}
=-\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}
$
$y_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)+2\sqrt{2}}{2*2}=\frac{0+2\sqrt{2}}{4}
=\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{4}
=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}
