Solution for 5p^2-4p+17= equation:


Simplifying
5p2 + -4p + 17 = 0

Reorder the terms:
17 + -4p + 5p2 = 0

Solving
17 + -4p + 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'.
3.4 + -0.8p + p2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-3.4' to each side of the equation.
3.4 + -0.8p + -3.4 + p2 = 0 + -3.4

Reorder the terms:
3.4 + -3.4 + -0.8p + p2 = 0 + -3.4

Combine like terms: 3.4 + -3.4 = 0.0
0.0 + -0.8p + p2 = 0 + -3.4
-0.8p + p2 = 0 + -3.4

Combine like terms: 0 + -3.4 = -3.4
-0.8p + p2 = -3.4

The p term is -0.8p.  Take half its coefficient (-0.4).
Square it (0.16) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.16' to each side of the equation.
-0.8p + 0.16 + p2 = -3.4 + 0.16

Reorder the terms:
0.16 + -0.8p + p2 = -3.4 + 0.16

Combine like terms: -3.4 + 0.16 = -3.24
0.16 + -0.8p + p2 = -3.24

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(p + -0.4)(p + -0.4) = -3.24

Can't calculate square root of the right side.

The solution to this equation could not be determined.
