Solution for (10-x)*(x-2)=15 equation:


Simplifying
(10 + -1x)(x + -2) = 15

Reorder the terms:
(10 + -1x)(-2 + x) = 15

Multiply (10 + -1x) * (-2 + x)
(10(-2 + x) + -1x * (-2 + x)) = 15
((-2 * 10 + x * 10) + -1x * (-2 + x)) = 15
((-20 + 10x) + -1x * (-2 + x)) = 15
(-20 + 10x + (-2 * -1x + x * -1x)) = 15
(-20 + 10x + (2x + -1x2)) = 15

Combine like terms: 10x + 2x = 12x
(-20 + 12x + -1x2) = 15

Solving
-20 + 12x + -1x2 = 15

Solving for variable 'x'.
