Solution for y^2-.6y+.08=0 equation:


Simplifying
y2 + -0.6y + 0.08 = 0

Reorder the terms:
0.08 + -0.6y + y2 = 0

Solving
0.08 + -0.6y + y2 = 0

Solving for variable 'y'.

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.08' to each side of the equation.
0.08 + -0.6y + -0.08 + y2 = 0 + -0.08

Reorder the terms:
0.08 + -0.08 + -0.6y + y2 = 0 + -0.08

Combine like terms: 0.08 + -0.08 = 0.00
0.00 + -0.6y + y2 = 0 + -0.08
-0.6y + y2 = 0 + -0.08

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.08 = -0.08
-0.6y + y2 = -0.08

The y term is -0.6y.  Take half its coefficient (-0.3).
Square it (0.09) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.09' to each side of the equation.
-0.6y + 0.09 + y2 = -0.08 + 0.09

Reorder the terms:
0.09 + -0.6y + y2 = -0.08 + 0.09

Combine like terms: -0.08 + 0.09 = 0.01
0.09 + -0.6y + y2 = 0.01

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(y + -0.3)(y + -0.3) = 0.01

Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.1

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(y + -0.3) equal to 0.1 and -0.1.

Subproblem 1

y + -0.3 = 0.1 Simplifying y + -0.3 = 0.1 Reorder the terms: -0.3 + y = 0.1 Solving -0.3 + y = 0.1 Solving for variable 'y'. Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.3' to each side of the equation. -0.3 + 0.3 + y = 0.1 + 0.3 Combine like terms: -0.3 + 0.3 = 0.0 0.0 + y = 0.1 + 0.3 y = 0.1 + 0.3 Combine like terms: 0.1 + 0.3 = 0.4 y = 0.4 Simplifying y = 0.4

Subproblem 2

y + -0.3 = -0.1 Simplifying y + -0.3 = -0.1 Reorder the terms: -0.3 + y = -0.1 Solving -0.3 + y = -0.1 Solving for variable 'y'. Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '0.3' to each side of the equation. -0.3 + 0.3 + y = -0.1 + 0.3 Combine like terms: -0.3 + 0.3 = 0.0 0.0 + y = -0.1 + 0.3 y = -0.1 + 0.3 Combine like terms: -0.1 + 0.3 = 0.2 y = 0.2 Simplifying y = 0.2

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. y = {0.4, 0.2}
