Solution for n^2+n+16=0 equation:


Simplifying
n2 + n + 16 = 0

Reorder the terms:
16 + n + n2 = 0

Solving
16 + n + n2 = 0

Solving for variable 'n'.

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-16' to each side of the equation.
16 + n + -16 + n2 = 0 + -16

Reorder the terms:
16 + -16 + n + n2 = 0 + -16

Combine like terms: 16 + -16 = 0
0 + n + n2 = 0 + -16
n + n2 = 0 + -16

Combine like terms: 0 + -16 = -16
n + n2 = -16

The n term is n.  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.
n + 0.25 + n2 = -16 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + n + n2 = -16 + 0.25

Combine like terms: -16 + 0.25 = -15.75
0.25 + n + n2 = -15.75

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(n + 0.5)(n + 0.5) = -15.75

Can't calculate square root of the right side.

The solution to this equation could not be determined.
