Solution for 3-7b-2b^2=0 equation:


Simplifying
3 + -7b + -2b2 = 0

Solving
3 + -7b + -2b2 = 0

Solving for variable 'b'.

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

Divide each side by '-2'.
-1.5 + 3.5b + b2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1.5' to each side of the equation.
-1.5 + 3.5b + 1.5 + b2 = 0 + 1.5

Reorder the terms:
-1.5 + 1.5 + 3.5b + b2 = 0 + 1.5

Combine like terms: -1.5 + 1.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 3.5b + b2 = 0 + 1.5
3.5b + b2 = 0 + 1.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 1.5 = 1.5
3.5b + b2 = 1.5

The b term is 3.5b.  Take half its coefficient (1.75).
Square it (3.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '3.0625' to each side of the equation.
3.5b + 3.0625 + b2 = 1.5 + 3.0625

Reorder the terms:
3.0625 + 3.5b + b2 = 1.5 + 3.0625

Combine like terms: 1.5 + 3.0625 = 4.5625
3.0625 + 3.5b + b2 = 4.5625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(b + 1.75)(b + 1.75) = 4.5625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 2.136000936

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(b + 1.75) equal to 2.136000936 and -2.136000936.

Subproblem 1

b + 1.75 = 2.136000936 Simplifying b + 1.75 = 2.136000936 Reorder the terms: 1.75 + b = 2.136000936 Solving 1.75 + b = 2.136000936 Solving for variable 'b'. Move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1.75' to each side of the equation. 1.75 + -1.75 + b = 2.136000936 + -1.75 Combine like terms: 1.75 + -1.75 = 0.00 0.00 + b = 2.136000936 + -1.75 b = 2.136000936 + -1.75 Combine like terms: 2.136000936 + -1.75 = 0.386000936 b = 0.386000936 Simplifying b = 0.386000936

Subproblem 2

b + 1.75 = -2.136000936 Simplifying b + 1.75 = -2.136000936 Reorder the terms: 1.75 + b = -2.136000936 Solving 1.75 + b = -2.136000936 Solving for variable 'b'. Move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1.75' to each side of the equation. 1.75 + -1.75 + b = -2.136000936 + -1.75 Combine like terms: 1.75 + -1.75 = 0.00 0.00 + b = -2.136000936 + -1.75 b = -2.136000936 + -1.75 Combine like terms: -2.136000936 + -1.75 = -3.886000936 b = -3.886000936 Simplifying b = -3.886000936

Solution
