Solution for 5p^2+3p-4=0 equation:


Simplifying
5p2 + 3p + -4 = 0

Reorder the terms:
-4 + 3p + 5p2 = 0

Solving
-4 + 3p + 5p2 = 0

Solving for variable 'p'.

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

Divide each side by '5'.
-0.8 + 0.6p + p2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.8' to each side of the equation.
-0.8 + 0.6p + 0.8 + p2 = 0 + 0.8

Reorder the terms:
-0.8 + 0.8 + 0.6p + p2 = 0 + 0.8

Combine like terms: -0.8 + 0.8 = 0.0
0.0 + 0.6p + p2 = 0 + 0.8
0.6p + p2 = 0 + 0.8

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.8 = 0.8
0.6p + p2 = 0.8

The p term is 0.6p.  Take half its coefficient (0.3).
Square it (0.09) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.09' to each side of the equation.
0.6p + 0.09 + p2 = 0.8 + 0.09

Reorder the terms:
0.09 + 0.6p + p2 = 0.8 + 0.09

Combine like terms: 0.8 + 0.09 = 0.89
0.09 + 0.6p + p2 = 0.89

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(p + 0.3)(p + 0.3) = 0.89

Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.943398113

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(p + 0.3) equal to 0.943398113 and -0.943398113.

Subproblem 1

p + 0.3 = 0.943398113 Simplifying p + 0.3 = 0.943398113 Reorder the terms: 0.3 + p = 0.943398113 Solving 0.3 + p = 0.943398113 Solving for variable 'p'. Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.3' to each side of the equation. 0.3 + -0.3 + p = 0.943398113 + -0.3 Combine like terms: 0.3 + -0.3 = 0.0 0.0 + p = 0.943398113 + -0.3 p = 0.943398113 + -0.3 Combine like terms: 0.943398113 + -0.3 = 0.643398113 p = 0.643398113 Simplifying p = 0.643398113

Subproblem 2

p + 0.3 = -0.943398113 Simplifying p + 0.3 = -0.943398113 Reorder the terms: 0.3 + p = -0.943398113 Solving 0.3 + p = -0.943398113 Solving for variable 'p'. Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.3' to each side of the equation. 0.3 + -0.3 + p = -0.943398113 + -0.3 Combine like terms: 0.3 + -0.3 = 0.0 0.0 + p = -0.943398113 + -0.3 p = -0.943398113 + -0.3 Combine like terms: -0.943398113 + -0.3 = -1.243398113 p = -1.243398113 Simplifying p = -1.243398113

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. p = {0.643398113, -1.243398113}
