Solution for v(2v-20)=-21 equation:


Simplifying
v(2v + -20) = -21

Reorder the terms:
v(-20 + 2v) = -21
(-20 * v + 2v * v) = -21
(-20v + 2v2) = -21

Solving
-20v + 2v2 = -21

Solving for variable 'v'.

Reorder the terms:
21 + -20v + 2v2 = -21 + 21

Combine like terms: -21 + 21 = 0
21 + -20v + 2v2 = 0

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

Divide each side by '2'.
10.5 + -10v + v2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-10.5' to each side of the equation.
10.5 + -10v + -10.5 + v2 = 0 + -10.5

Reorder the terms:
10.5 + -10.5 + -10v + v2 = 0 + -10.5

Combine like terms: 10.5 + -10.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -10v + v2 = 0 + -10.5
-10v + v2 = 0 + -10.5

Combine like terms: 0 + -10.5 = -10.5
-10v + v2 = -10.5

The v term is -10v.  Take half its coefficient (-5).
Square it (25) and add it to both sides.

Add '25' to each side of the equation.
-10v + 25 + v2 = -10.5 + 25

Reorder the terms:
25 + -10v + v2 = -10.5 + 25

Combine like terms: -10.5 + 25 = 14.5
25 + -10v + v2 = 14.5

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(v + -5)(v + -5) = 14.5

Calculate the square root of the right side: 3.807886553
