Solution for x(x+1)=-3 equation:


Simplifying
x(x + 1) = -3

Reorder the terms:
x(1 + x) = -3
(1 * x + x * x) = -3
(1x + x2) = -3

Solving
1x + x2 = -3

Solving for variable 'x'.

Reorder the terms:
3 + 1x + x2 = -3 + 3

Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0
3 + 1x + x2 = 0

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-3' to each side of the equation.
3 + 1x + -3 + x2 = 0 + -3

Reorder the terms:
3 + -3 + 1x + x2 = 0 + -3

Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0
0 + 1x + x2 = 0 + -3
1x + x2 = 0 + -3

Combine like terms: 0 + -3 = -3
1x + x2 = -3

The x term is 1x.  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.
x + 0.25 + x2 = -3 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + x + x2 = -3 + 0.25

Combine like terms: -3 + 0.25 = -2.75
0.25 + x + x2 = -2.75

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 0.5)(x + 0.5) = -2.75

Can't calculate square root of the right side.
