17 + n + n2 = 0

Solving
17 + n + n2 = 0

Solving for variable 'n'.

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-17' to each side of the equation.
17 + n + -17 + n2 = 0 + -17

Reorder the terms:
17 + -17 + n + n2 = 0 + -17

Combine like terms: 17 + -17 = 0
0 + n + n2 = 0 + -17
n + n2 = 0 + -17

Combine like terms: 0 + -17 = -17
n + n2 = -17

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 = -17 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + n + n2 = -17 + 0.25

Combine like terms: -17 + 0.25 = -16.75
0.25 + n + n2 = -16.75

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(n + 0.5)(n + 0.5) = -16.75

Can't calculate square root of the right side.
