Solution for (y+.4)(y+.4)=.84 equation:


Simplifying
(y + 0.4)(y + 0.4) = 0.84

Reorder the terms:
(0.4 + y)(y + 0.4) = 0.84

Reorder the terms:
(0.4 + y)(0.4 + y) = 0.84

Multiply (0.4 + y) * (0.4 + y)
(0.4(0.4 + y) + y(0.4 + y)) = 0.84
((0.4 * 0.4 + y * 0.4) + y(0.4 + y)) = 0.84
((0.16 + 0.4y) + y(0.4 + y)) = 0.84
(0.16 + 0.4y + (0.4 * y + y * y)) = 0.84
(0.16 + 0.4y + (0.4y + y2)) = 0.84

Combine like terms: 0.4y + 0.4y = 0.8y
(0.16 + 0.8y + y2) = 0.84

Solving
0.16 + 0.8y + y2 = 0.84

Solving for variable 'y'.

Reorder the terms:
0.16 + -0.84 + 0.8y + y2 = 0.84 + -0.84

Combine like terms: 0.16 + -0.84 = -0.68
-0.68 + 0.8y + y2 = 0.84 + -0.84

Combine like terms: 0.84 + -0.84 = 0.00
-0.68 + 0.8y + y2 = 0.00

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.68' to each side of the equation.
-0.68 + 0.8y + 0.68 + y2 = 0.00 + 0.68

Reorder the terms:
-0.68 + 0.68 + 0.8y + y2 = 0.00 + 0.68

Combine like terms: -0.68 + 0.68 = 0.00
0.00 + 0.8y + y2 = 0.00 + 0.68
0.8y + y2 = 0.00 + 0.68

Combine like terms: 0.00 + 0.68 = 0.68
0.8y + y2 = 0.68

The y term is 0.8y.  Take half its coefficient (0.4).
Square it (0.16) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.16' to each side of the equation.
0.8y + 0.16 + y2 = 0.68 + 0.16

Reorder the terms:
0.16 + 0.8y + y2 = 0.68 + 0.16

Combine like terms: 0.68 + 0.16 = 0.84
0.16 + 0.8y + y2 = 0.84

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(y + 0.4)(y + 0.4) = 0.84

Calculate the square root of the right side: 0.916515139
