Solution for X=(y/2)-1 equation:

X=(X/2)-1

We move all terms to the left:

X-((X/2)-1)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

X-((+X/2)-1)=0

We multiply all the terms by the denominator


X*2)-1)-((+X=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

X+X*2)-1)-((=0

Wy multiply elements

2X^2+X=0

a = 2; b = 1; c = 0;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 12-4·2·0
Δ = 1
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$X_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$X_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{1}=1$
$X_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(1)-1}{2*2}=\frac{-2}{4}
=-1/2
$
$X_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(1)+1}{2*2}=\frac{0}{4}
=0
