Solution for u^2-u+15=0 equation:


Simplifying
u2 + -1u + 15 = 0

Reorder the terms:
15 + -1u + u2 = 0

Solving
15 + -1u + u2 = 0

Solving for variable 'u'.

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-15' to each side of the equation.
15 + -1u + -15 + u2 = 0 + -15

Reorder the terms:
15 + -15 + -1u + u2 = 0 + -15

Combine like terms: 15 + -15 = 0
0 + -1u + u2 = 0 + -15
-1u + u2 = 0 + -15

Combine like terms: 0 + -15 = -15
-1u + u2 = -15

The u term is -1u.  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.
-1u + 0.25 + u2 = -15 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -1u + u2 = -15 + 0.25

Combine like terms: -15 + 0.25 = -14.75
0.25 + -1u + u2 = -14.75

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(u + -0.5)(u + -0.5) = -14.75

Can't calculate square root of the right side.

The solution to this equation could not be determined.
