Solution for t(t-1)=7 equation:


Simplifying
t(t + -1) = 7

Reorder the terms:
t(-1 + t) = 7
(-1 * t + t * t) = 7
(-1t + t2) = 7

Solving
-1t + t2 = 7

Solving for variable 't'.

Reorder the terms:
-7 + -1t + t2 = 7 + -7

Combine like terms: 7 + -7 = 0
-7 + -1t + t2 = 0

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '7' to each side of the equation.
-7 + -1t + 7 + t2 = 0 + 7

Reorder the terms:
-7 + 7 + -1t + t2 = 0 + 7

Combine like terms: -7 + 7 = 0
0 + -1t + t2 = 0 + 7
-1t + t2 = 0 + 7

Combine like terms: 0 + 7 = 7
-1t + t2 = 7

The t term is -1t.  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.
-1t + 0.25 + t2 = 7 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -1t + t2 = 7 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 7 + 0.25 = 7.25
0.25 + -1t + t2 = 7.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(t + -0.5)(t + -0.5) = 7.25
