Solution for (2-x)(4-x)=9.5 equation:


Simplifying
(2 + -1x)(4 + -1x) = 9.5

Multiply (2 + -1x) * (4 + -1x)
(2(4 + -1x) + -1x * (4 + -1x)) = 9.5
((4 * 2 + -1x * 2) + -1x * (4 + -1x)) = 9.5
((8 + -2x) + -1x * (4 + -1x)) = 9.5
(8 + -2x + (4 * -1x + -1x * -1x)) = 9.5
(8 + -2x + (-4x + 1x2)) = 9.5

Combine like terms: -2x + -4x = -6x
(8 + -6x + 1x2) = 9.5

Solving
8 + -6x + 1x2 = 9.5

Solving for variable 'x'.

Reorder the terms:
8 + -9.5 + -6x + 1x2 = 9.5 + -9.5

Combine like terms: 8 + -9.5 = -1.5
-1.5 + -6x + 1x2 = 9.5 + -9.5

Combine like terms: 9.5 + -9.5 = 0.0
-1.5 + -6x + 1x2 = 0.0

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '1.5' to each side of the equation.
-1.5 + -6x + 1.5 + x2 = 0.0 + 1.5

Reorder the terms:
-1.5 + 1.5 + -6x + x2 = 0.0 + 1.5

Combine like terms: -1.5 + 1.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -6x + x2 = 0.0 + 1.5
-6x + x2 = 0.0 + 1.5

Combine like terms: 0.0 + 1.5 = 1.5
-6x + x2 = 1.5

The x term is -6x.  Take half its coefficient (-3).
Square it (9) and add it to both sides.
