Solution for x-20/100x=120 equation:



x-20/100x=120
We move all terms to the left:
x-20/100x-(120)=0
Domain of the equation: 100x!=0
x!=0/100
x!=0
x∈R
We multiply all the terms by the denominator
x*100x-120*100x-20=0
Wy multiply elements
100x^2-12000x-20=0
a = 100; b = -12000; c = -20;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -120002-4·100·(-20)
Δ = 144008000
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{144008000}=\sqrt{1600*90005}=\sqrt{1600}*\sqrt{90005}=40\sqrt{90005}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-12000)-40\sqrt{90005}}{2*100}=\frac{12000-40\sqrt{90005}}{200} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-12000)+40\sqrt{90005}}{2*100}=\frac{12000+40\sqrt{90005}}{200} $
