Solution for (2-n)(4-n)-n^2=5(1-n) equation:


Simplifying
(2 + -1n)(4 + -1n) + -1n2 = 5(1 + -1n)

Multiply (2 + -1n) * (4 + -1n)
(2(4 + -1n) + -1n * (4 + -1n)) + -1n2 = 5(1 + -1n)
((4 * 2 + -1n * 2) + -1n * (4 + -1n)) + -1n2 = 5(1 + -1n)
((8 + -2n) + -1n * (4 + -1n)) + -1n2 = 5(1 + -1n)
(8 + -2n + (4 * -1n + -1n * -1n)) + -1n2 = 5(1 + -1n)
(8 + -2n + (-4n + 1n2)) + -1n2 = 5(1 + -1n)

Combine like terms: -2n + -4n = -6n
(8 + -6n + 1n2) + -1n2 = 5(1 + -1n)

Combine like terms: 1n2 + -1n2 = 0
8 + -6n + 0 = 5(1 + -1n)
8 + -6n = 5(1 + -1n)
8 + -6n = (1 * 5 + -1n * 5)
8 + -6n = (5 + -5n)

Solving
8 + -6n = 5 + -5n

Solving for variable 'n'.

Move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '5n' to each side of the equation.
8 + -6n + 5n = 5 + -5n + 5n

Combine like terms: -6n + 5n = -1n
8 + -1n = 5 + -5n + 5n

Combine like terms: -5n + 5n = 0
8 + -1n = 5 + 0
8 + -1n = 5

Add '-8' to each side of the equation.
8 + -8 + -1n = 5 + -8

0 + -1n = 5 + -8
-1n = 5 + -8

Combine like terms: 5 + -8 = -3
-1n = -3

Divide each side by '-1'.
n = 3

Simplifying
n = 3
