Solution for 5=(x)(x+1) equation:


Simplifying
5 = (x)(x + 1)

Reorder the terms:
5 = x(1 + x)
5 = (1 * x + x * x)
5 = (1x + x2)

Solving
5 = 1x + x2

Solving for variable 'x'.

Reorder the terms:
5 + -1x + -1x2 = 1x + -1x + x2 + -1x2

Combine like terms: 1x + -1x = 0
5 + -1x + -1x2 = 0 + x2 + -1x2
5 + -1x + -1x2 = x2 + -1x2

Combine like terms: x2 + -1x2 = 0
5 + -1x + -1x2 = 0

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-1 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-1'.
-5 + x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '5' to each side of the equation.
-5 + x + 5 + x2 = 0 + 5

Reorder the terms:
-5 + 5 + x + x2 = 0 + 5

Combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0
0 + x + x2 = 0 + 5
x + x2 = 0 + 5

Combine like terms: 0 + 5 = 5
x + x2 = 5

The x term is x.  Take half its coefficient (0.5).
Square it (0.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
 + 0.25 + x2 = 5 + 0.25

Combine like terms:  + 0.25 = 1.25
1.25 + x2 = 5 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 5 + 0.25 = 5.25
1.25 + x2 = 5.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 0.5)(x + 0.5) = 5.25
