Solution for 2z^2+z-20= equation:


Simplifying
2z2 + z + -20 = 0

Reorder the terms:
-20 + z + 2z2 = 0

Solving
-20 + z + 2z2 = 0

Solving for variable 'z'.

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

Divide each side by '2'.
-10 + 0.5z + z2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '10' to each side of the equation.
-10 + 0.5z + 10 + z2 = 0 + 10

Reorder the terms:
-10 + 10 + 0.5z + z2 = 0 + 10

Combine like terms: -10 + 10 = 0
0 + 0.5z + z2 = 0 + 10
0.5z + z2 = 0 + 10

Combine like terms: 0 + 10 = 10
0.5z + z2 = 10

The z term is z.  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.
0.5z + 0.25 + z2 = 10 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + 0.5z + z2 = 10 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 10 + 0.25 = 10.25
0.25 + 0.5z + z2 = 10.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(z + 0.5)(z + 0.5) = 10.25

Calculate the square root of the right side: 3.201562119

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(z + 0.5) equal to 3.201562119 and -3.201562119.

Subproblem 1

z + 0.5 = 3.201562119 Simplifying z + 0.5 = 3.201562119 Reorder the terms: 0.5 + z = 3.201562119 Solving 0.5 + z = 3.201562119 Solving for variable 'z'. Move all terms containing z to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.5' to each side of the equation. 0.5 + -0.5 + z = 3.201562119 + -0.5 Combine like terms: 0.5 + -0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + z = 3.201562119 + -0.5 z = 3.201562119 + -0.5 Combine like terms: 3.201562119 + -0.5 = 2.701562119 z = 2.701562119 Simplifying z = 2.701562119

Subproblem 2

z + 0.5 = -3.201562119 Simplifying z + 0.5 = -3.201562119 Reorder the terms: 0.5 + z = -3.201562119 Solving 0.5 + z = -3.201562119 Solving for variable 'z'. Move all terms containing z to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.5' to each side of the equation. 0.5 + -0.5 + z = -3.201562119 + -0.5 Combine like terms: 0.5 + -0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + z = -3.201562119 + -0.5 z = -3.201562119 + -0.5 Combine like terms: -3.201562119 + -0.5 = -3.701562119 z = -3.701562119 Simplifying z = -3.701562119
