Solution for x-2x^2=32 equation:


Simplifying
x + -2x2 = 32

Solving
x + -2x2 = 32

Solving for variable 'x'.

Reorder the terms:
-32 + x + -2x2 = 32 + -32

Combine like terms: 32 + -32 = 0
-32 + x + -2x2 = 0

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-2 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-2'.
16 + -0.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-16' to each side of the equation.
16 + -0.5x + -16 + x2 = 0 + -16

Reorder the terms:
16 + -16 + -0.5x + x2 = 0 + -16

Combine like terms: 16 + -16 = 0
0 + -0.5x + x2 = 0 + -16
-0.5x + x2 = 0 + -16

Combine like terms: 0 + -16 = -16
-0.5x + x2 = -16

The x term is x.  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.
-0.5x + 0.25 + x2 = -16 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -0.5x + x2 = -16 + 0.25

Combine like terms: -16 + 0.25 = -15.75
0.25 + -0.5x + x2 = -15.75

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 0.5)(x + 0.5) = -15.75

Can't calculate square root of the right side.

The solution to this equation could not be determined.
