c=c\times \frac{c}{1}
Multiply both sides of the equation by T.
c=cc
Anything divided by one gives itself.
c=c^{2}
Multiply c and c to get c^{2}.
c-c^{2}=0
Subtract c^{2} from both sides.
c\left(1-c\right)=0
Factor out c.
c=0 c=1
To find equation solutions, solve c=0 and 1-c=0.
c=c\times \frac{c}{1}
Multiply both sides of the equation by T.
c=cc
Anything divided by one gives itself.
c=c^{2}
Multiply c and c to get c^{2}.
c-c^{2}=0
Subtract c^{2} from both sides.
-c^{2}+c=0
All equations of the form ax^{2}+bx+c=0 can be solved using the quadratic formula: \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}. The quadratic formula gives two solutions, one when ± is addition and one when it is subtraction.
c=\frac{-1±\sqrt{1^{2}}}{2\left(-1\right)}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute -1 for a, 1 for b, and 0 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
c=\frac{-1±1}{2\left(-1\right)}
Take the square root of 1^{2}.
c=\frac{-1±1}{-2}
Multiply 2 times -1.
c=\frac{0}{-2}
Now solve the equation c=\frac{-1±1}{-2} when ± is plus. Add -1 to 1.
c=0
Divide 0 by -2.
c=-\frac{2}{-2}
Now solve the equation c=\frac{-1±1}{-2} when ± is minus. Subtract 1 from -1.
c=1
Divide -2 by -2.
c=0 c=1
The equation is now solved.
c=c\times \frac{c}{1}
Multiply both sides of the equation by T.
c=cc
Anything divided by one gives itself.
c=c^{2}
Multiply c and c to get c^{2}.
c-c^{2}=0
Subtract c^{2} from both sides.
-c^{2}+c=0
Quadratic equations such as this one can be solved by completing the square. In order to complete the square, the equation must first be in the form x^{2}+bx=c.
\frac{-c^{2}+c}{-1}=\frac{0}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
c^{2}+\frac{1}{-1}c=\frac{0}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
c^{2}-c=\frac{0}{-1}
Divide 1 by -1.
c^{2}-c=0
Divide 0 by -1.
c^{2}-c+\left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)^{2}=\left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)^{2}
Divide -1, the coefficient of the x term, by 2 to get -\frac{1}{2}. Then add the square of -\frac{1}{2} to both sides of the equation. This step makes the left hand side of the equation a perfect square.
c^{2}-c+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{4}
Square -\frac{1}{2} by squaring both the numerator and the denominator of the fraction.
\left(c-\frac{1}{2}\right)^{2}=\frac{1}{4}
Factor c^{2}-c+\frac{1}{4}. In general, when x^{2}+bx+c is a perfect square, it can always be factored as \left(x+\frac{b}{2}\right)^{2}.
\sqrt{\left(c-\frac{1}{2}\right)^{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{4}}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
c-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2} c-\frac{1}{2}=-\frac{1}{2}
Simplify.
c=1 c=0
Add \frac{1}{2} to both sides of the equation.
