0.0000 + -2p + p2 = 0.0000 + -0.5775
-2p + p2 = 0.0000 + -0.5775

Combine like terms: 0.0000 + -0.5775 = -0.5775
-2p + p2 = -0.5775

The p term is -2p.  Take half its coefficient (-1).
Square it (1) and add it to both sides.

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
-2p + 1 + p2 = -0.5775 + 1

Reorder the terms:
1 + -2p + p2 = -0.5775 + 1

Combine like terms: -0.5775 + 1 = 0.4225
1 + -2p + p2 = 0.4225

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(p + -1)(p + -1) = 0.4225

Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.65

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(p + -1) equal to 0.65 and -0.65.

Subproblem 1

p + -1 = 0.65 Simplifying p + -1 = 0.65 Reorder the terms: -1 + p = 0.65 Solving -1 + p = 0.65 Solving for variable 'p'. Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '1' to each side of the equation. -1 + 1 + p = 0.65 + 1 Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0 0 + p = 0.65 + 1 p = 0.65 + 1 Combine like terms: 0.65 + 1 = 1.65 p = 1.65 Simplifying p = 1.65

Subproblem 2

p + -1 = -0.65 Simplifying p + -1 = -0.65 Reorder the terms: -1 + p = -0.65 Solving -1 + p = -0.65 Solving for variable 'p'. Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '1' to each side of the equation. -1 + 1 + p = -0.65 + 1 Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0 0 + p = -0.65 + 1 p = -0.65 + 1 Combine like terms: -0.65 + 1 = 0.35 p = 0.35 Simplifying p = 0.35

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. p = {1.65, 0.35}
