Solution for (a+70)(a+30)=0.5(a) equation:


Simplifying
(a + 70)(a + 30) = 0.5(a)

Reorder the terms:
(70 + a)(a + 30) = 0.5(a)

Reorder the terms:
(70 + a)(30 + a) = 0.5(a)

Multiply (70 + a) * (30 + a)
(70(30 + a) + a(30 + a)) = 0.5(a)
((30 * 70 + a * 70) + a(30 + a)) = 0.5(a)
((2100 + 70a) + a(30 + a)) = 0.5(a)
(2100 + 70a + (30 * a + a * a)) = 0.5(a)
(2100 + 70a + (30a + a2)) = 0.5(a)

Combine like terms: 70a + 30a = 100a
(2100 + 100a + a2) = 0.5(a)

Solving
2100 + 100a + a2 = 0.5a

Solving for variable 'a'.

Reorder the terms:
2100 + 100a + -0.5a + a2 = 0.5a + -0.5a

Combine like terms: 100a + -0.5a = 99.5a
2100 + 99.5a + a2 = 0.5a + -0.5a

Combine like terms: 0.5a + -0.5a = 0.0
2100 + 99.5a + a2 = 0.0

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-2100' to each side of the equation.
2100 + 99.5a + -2100 + a2 = 0.0 + -2100

Reorder the terms:
2100 + -2100 + 99.5a + a2 = 0.0 + -2100

Combine like terms: 2100 + -2100 = 0
0 + 99.5a + a2 = 0.0 + -2100
99.5a + a2 = 0.0 + -2100

Combine like terms: 0.0 + -2100 = -2100
99.5a + a2 = -2100

The a term is 99.5a.  Take half its coefficient (49.75).
Square it (2475.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '2475.0625' to each side of the equation.
99.5a + 2475.0625 + a2 = -2100 + 2475.0625

Reorder the terms:
2475.0625 + 99.5a + a2 = -2100 + 2475.0625

Combine like terms: -2100 + 2475.0625 = 375.0625
2475.0625 + 99.5a + a2 = 375.0625
