Solution for x^2=1.5(x+1) equation: 


Simplifying
x2 = 1.5(x + 1)

Reorder the terms:
x2 = 1.5(1 + x)
x2 = (1 * 1.5 + x * 1.5)
x2 = (1.5 + 1.5x)

Solving
x2 = 1.5 + 1.5x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Reorder the terms:
-1.5 + -1.5x + x2 = 1.5 + 1.5x + -1.5 + -1.5x

Reorder the terms:
-1.5 + -1.5x + x2 = 1.5 + -1.5 + 1.5x + -1.5x

Combine like terms: 1.5 + -1.5 = 0.0
-1.5 + -1.5x + x2 = 0.0 + 1.5x + -1.5x
-1.5 + -1.5x + x2 = 1.5x + -1.5x

Combine like terms: 1.5x + -1.5x = 0.0
-1.5 + -1.5x + x2 = 0.0

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1.5' to each side of the equation.
-1.5 + -1.5x + 1.5 + x2 = 0.0 + 1.5

Reorder the terms:
-1.5 + 1.5 + -1.5x + x2 = 0.0 + 1.5

Combine like terms: -1.5 + 1.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -1.5x + x2 = 0.0 + 1.5
-1.5x + x2 = 0.0 + 1.5

Combine like terms: 0.0 + 1.5 = 1.5
-1.5x + x2 = 1.5

The x term is -1.5x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.75).
Square it (0.5625) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.5625' to each side of the equation.
-1.5x + 0.5625 + x2 = 1.5 + 0.5625

Reorder the terms:
0.5625 + -1.5x + x2 = 1.5 + 0.5625

Combine like terms: 1.5 + 0.5625 = 2.0625
0.5625 + -1.5x + x2 = 2.0625
