Solution for (.5b+.4)(b+.7)= equation:


Simplifying
(0.5b + 0.4)(b + 0.7) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(0.4 + 0.5b)(b + 0.7) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(0.4 + 0.5b)(0.7 + b) = 0

Multiply (0.4 + 0.5b) * (0.7 + b)
(0.4(0.7 + b) + 0.5b * (0.7 + b)) = 0
((0.7 * 0.4 + b * 0.4) + 0.5b * (0.7 + b)) = 0
((0.28 + 0.4b) + 0.5b * (0.7 + b)) = 0
(0.28 + 0.4b + (0.7 * 0.5b + b * 0.5b)) = 0
(0.28 + 0.4b + (0.35b + 0.5b2)) = 0

Combine like terms: 0.4b + 0.35b = 0.75b
(0.28 + 0.75b + 0.5b2) = 0

Solving
0.28 + 0.75b + 0.5b2 = 0

Solving for variable 'b'.

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

Divide each side by '0.5'.
0.56 + 1.5b + b2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-0.56' to each side of the equation.
0.56 + 1.5b + -0.56 + b2 = 0 + -0.56

Reorder the terms:
0.56 + -0.56 + 1.5b + b2 = 0 + -0.56

Combine like terms: 0.56 + -0.56 = 0.00
0.00 + 1.5b + b2 = 0 + -0.56
1.5b + b2 = 0 + -0.56

Combine like terms: 0 + -0.56 = -0.56
1.5b + b2 = -0.56

The b term is 1.5b.  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.
1.5b + 0.5625 + b2 = -0.56 + 0.5625

Reorder the terms:
0.5625 + 1.5b + b2 = -0.56 + 0.5625

Combine like terms: -0.56 + 0.5625 = 0.0025
0.5625 + 1.5b + b2 = 0.0025

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(b + 0.75)(b + 0.75) = 0.0025

Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.05

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(b + 0.75) equal to 0.05 and -0.05.

Subproblem 1

b + 0.75 = 0.05 Simplifying b + 0.75 = 0.05 Reorder the terms: 0.75 + b = 0.05 Solving 0.75 + b = 0.05 Solving for variable 'b'. Move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.75' to each side of the equation. 0.75 + -0.75 + b = 0.05 + -0.75 Combine like terms: 0.75 + -0.75 = 0.00 0.00 + b = 0.05 + -0.75 b = 0.05 + -0.75 Combine like terms: 0.05 + -0.75 = -0.7 b = -0.7 Simplifying b = -0.7

Subproblem 2

b + 0.75 = -0.05 Simplifying b + 0.75 = -0.05 Reorder the terms: 0.75 + b = -0.05 Solving 0.75 + b = -0.05 Solving for variable 'b'. Move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-0.75' to each side of the equation. 0.75 + -0.75 + b = -0.05 + -0.75 Combine like terms: 0.75 + -0.75 = 0.00 0.00 + b = -0.05 + -0.75 b = -0.05 + -0.75 Combine like terms: -0.05 + -0.75 = -0.8 b = -0.8 Simplifying b = -0.8

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. b = {-0.7, -0.8}
