Solution for x-x^2=66 equation:


Simplifying
x + -1x2 = 66

Solving
x + -1x2 = 66

Solving for variable 'x'.

Reorder the terms:
-66 + x + -1x2 = 66 + -66

Combine like terms: 66 + -66 = 0
-66 + x + -1x2 = 0

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-1 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-1'.
66 + -1x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-66' to each side of the equation.
66 + -1x + -66 + x2 = 0 + -66

Reorder the terms:
66 + -66 + -1x + x2 = 0 + -66

Combine like terms: 66 + -66 = 0
0 + -1x + x2 = 0 + -66
-1x + x2 = 0 + -66

Combine like terms: 0 + -66 = -66
-1x + x2 = -66

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.
-1x + 0.25 + x2 = -66 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -1x + x2 = -66 + 0.25

Combine like terms: -66 + 0.25 = -65.75
0.25 + -1x + x2 = -65.75

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 0.5)(x + 0.5) = -65.75

Can't calculate square root of the right side.

The solution to this equation could not be determined.
