Solving
0.25 + -1P + P2 = 0

Solving for variable 'P'.

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.25' to each side of the equation.
0.25 + -1P + -0.25 + P2 = 0 + -0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -0.25 + -1P + P2 = 0 + -0.25

Combine like terms: 0.25 + -0.25 = 0.00
0.00 + -1P + P2 = 0 + -0.25
-1P + P2 = 0 + -0.25

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.25 = -0.25
-1P + P2 = -0.25

The P term is -1P.  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.
-1P + 0.25 + P2 = -0.25 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -1P + P2 = -0.25 + 0.25

Combine like terms: -0.25 + 0.25 = 0.00
0.25 + -1P + P2 = 0.00

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(P + -0.5)(P + -0.5) = 0.00

Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.00

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(P + -0.5) equal to 0.00 and 0.00.

Subproblem 1

P + -0.5 = 0.00 Simplifying P + -0.5 = 0.00 Reorder the terms: -0.5 + P = 0.00 Solving -0.5 + P = 0.00 Solving for variable 'P'. Move all terms containing P to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.5' to each side of the equation. -0.5 + 0.5 + P = 0.00 + 0.5 Combine like terms: -0.5 + 0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + P = 0.00 + 0.5 P = 0.00 + 0.5 Combine like terms: 0.00 + 0.5 = 0.5 P = 0.5 Simplifying P = 0.5

Subproblem 2

P + -0.5 = 0.00 Simplifying P + -0.5 = 0.00 Reorder the terms: -0.5 + P = 0.00 Solving -0.5 + P = 0.00 Solving for variable 'P'. Move all terms containing P to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.5' to each side of the equation. -0.5 + 0.5 + P = 0.00 + 0.5 Combine like terms: -0.5 + 0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + P = 0.00 + 0.5 P = 0.00 + 0.5 Combine like terms: 0.00 + 0.5 = 0.5 P = 0.5 Simplifying P = 0.5

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. P = {0.5, 0.5}
