Solution for 2t(t+2)=1 equation:


Simplifying
2t(t + 2) = 1

Reorder the terms:
2t(2 + t) = 1
(2 * 2t + t * 2t) = 1
(4t + 2t2) = 1

Solving
4t + 2t2 = 1

Solving for variable 't'.

Reorder the terms:
-1 + 4t + 2t2 = 1 + -1

Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0
-1 + 4t + 2t2 = 0

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

Divide each side by '2'.
-0.5 + 2t + t2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '0.5' to each side of the equation.
-0.5 + 2t + 0.5 + t2 = 0 + 0.5

Reorder the terms:
-0.5 + 0.5 + 2t + t2 = 0 + 0.5

Combine like terms: -0.5 + 0.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 2t + t2 = 0 + 0.5
2t + t2 = 0 + 0.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 0.5 = 0.5
2t + t2 = 0.5

The t term is 2t.  Take half its coefficient (1).
Square it (1) and add it to both sides.

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
2t + 1 + t2 = 0.5 + 1

Reorder the terms:
1 + 2t + t2 = 0.5 + 1

Combine like terms: 0.5 + 1 = 1.5
1 + 2t + t2 = 1.5

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(t + 1)(t + 1) = 1.5

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.224744871

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(t + 1) equal to 1.224744871 and -1.224744871.

Subproblem 1

t + 1 = 1.224744871 Simplifying t + 1 = 1.224744871 Reorder the terms: 1 + t = 1.224744871 Solving 1 + t = 1.224744871 Solving for variable 't'. Move all terms containing t to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1' to each side of the equation. 1 + -1 + t = 1.224744871 + -1 Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0 0 + t = 1.224744871 + -1 t = 1.224744871 + -1 Combine like terms: 1.224744871 + -1 = 0.224744871 t = 0.224744871 Simplifying t = 0.224744871

Subproblem 2

t + 1 = -1.224744871 Simplifying t + 1 = -1.224744871 Reorder the terms: 1 + t = -1.224744871 Solving 1 + t = -1.224744871 Solving for variable 't'. Move all terms containing t to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-1' to each side of the equation. 1 + -1 + t = -1.224744871 + -1 Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0 0 + t = -1.224744871 + -1 t = -1.224744871 + -1 Combine like terms: -1.224744871 + -1 = -2.224744871 t = -2.224744871 Simplifying t = -2.224744871
