Solving for $g$ in a quadratic equation [closed]

$begingroup$


is there a way to get that g = ?



I want to get the g out . Getting nasty results like
2h = gg - g . I'm stuck . Is there a way to find square root of gg -g or is there any other solution . Thank you

$g^2-g-2h=0$. This is called a quadratic equation and there is a standard formula for finding a solution to this type of equation.



If the equation is $ax^2+bx+c=0$, the solutions are given by:



$x = frac{-b + sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$ and $x = frac{-b - sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$.



In your case, $a=1, b=-1, c=-2h$, so the solutions are:



$g = frac{1 + sqrt{1+8h}}{2}$ and $g = frac{1 - sqrt{1+8h}}{2}$.



You will have to constrain the problem further to determine if any or both of the above solutions are valid.

Multiply out to obtain the quadratic:



$$h = {g^2 - g over 2}$$



so $$g^2 - 2 h - g = 0$$.



Use the quadratic formula:



$$g = frac{1}{2} left( 1pm sqrt{8 h+1} right)$$
