Solution for v^2-v-10=0 equation:


Simplifying
v2 + -1v + -10 = 0

Reorder the terms:
-10 + -1v + v2 = 0

Solving
-10 + -1v + v2 = 0

Solving for variable 'v'.

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '10' to each side of the equation.
-10 + -1v + 10 + v2 = 0 + 10

Reorder the terms:
-10 + 10 + -1v + v2 = 0 + 10

Combine like terms: -10 + 10 = 0
0 + -1v + v2 = 0 + 10
-1v + v2 = 0 + 10

Combine like terms: 0 + 10 = 10
-1v + v2 = 10

The v term is -1v.  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.
-1v + 0.25 + v2 = 10 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -1v + v2 = 10 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 10 + 0.25 = 10.25
0.25 + -1v + v2 = 10.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(v + -0.5)(v + -0.5) = 10.25

Calculate the square root of the right side: 3.201562119

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(v + -0.5) equal to 3.201562119 and -3.201562119.

Subproblem 1

v + -0.5 = 3.201562119 Simplifying v + -0.5 = 3.201562119 Reorder the terms: -0.5 + v = 3.201562119 Solving -0.5 + v = 3.201562119 Solving for variable 'v'. Move all terms containing v to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.5' to each side of the equation. -0.5 + 0.5 + v = 3.201562119 + 0.5 Combine like terms: -0.5 + 0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + v = 3.201562119 + 0.5 v = 3.201562119 + 0.5 Combine like terms: 3.201562119 + 0.5 = 3.701562119 v = 3.701562119 Simplifying v = 3.701562119

Subproblem 2

v + -0.5 = -3.201562119 Simplifying v + -0.5 = -3.201562119 Reorder the terms: -0.5 + v = -3.201562119 Solving -0.5 + v = -3.201562119 Solving for variable 'v'. Move all terms containing v to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.5' to each side of the equation. -0.5 + 0.5 + v = -3.201562119 + 0.5 Combine like terms: -0.5 + 0.5 = 0.0 0.0 + v = -3.201562119 + 0.5 v = -3.201562119 + 0.5 Combine like terms: -3.201562119 + 0.5 = -2.701562119 v = -2.701562119 Simplifying v = -2.701562119
