1/2n+n=16

Solution for 1/2n+n=16 equation:

1/2n+n=16

We move all terms to the left:

1/2n+n-(16)=0


Domain of the equation: 2n!=0

n!=0/2

n!=0

n∈R


We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

n+1/2n-16=0

We multiply all the terms by the denominator


n*2n-16*2n+1=0

Wy multiply elements

2n^2-32n+1=0

a = 2; b = -32; c = +1;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -322-4·2·1
Δ = 1016
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$n_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$n_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{1016}=\sqrt{4*254}=\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{254}=2\sqrt{254}$
$n_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-32)-2\sqrt{254}}{2*2}=\frac{32-2\sqrt{254}}{4}
$
$n_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-32)+2\sqrt{254}}{2*2}=\frac{32+2\sqrt{254}}{4}
