Solution for (2b-12)(b+10)=3b equation:


Simplifying
(2b + -12)(b + 10) = 3b

Reorder the terms:
(-12 + 2b)(b + 10) = 3b

Reorder the terms:
(-12 + 2b)(10 + b) = 3b

Multiply (-12 + 2b) * (10 + b)
(-12(10 + b) + 2b * (10 + b)) = 3b
((10 * -12 + b * -12) + 2b * (10 + b)) = 3b
((-120 + -12b) + 2b * (10 + b)) = 3b
(-120 + -12b + (10 * 2b + b * 2b)) = 3b
(-120 + -12b + (20b + 2b2)) = 3b

Combine like terms: -12b + 20b = 8b
(-120 + 8b + 2b2) = 3b

Solving
-120 + 8b + 2b2 = 3b

Solving for variable 'b'.

Reorder the terms:
-120 + 8b + -3b + 2b2 = 3b + -3b

Combine like terms: 8b + -3b = 5b
-120 + 5b + 2b2 = 3b + -3b

Combine like terms: 3b + -3b = 0
-120 + 5b + 2b2 = 0

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
2 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '2'.
-60 + 2.5b + b2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '60' to each side of the equation.
-60 + 2.5b + 60 + b2 = 0 + 60

Reorder the terms:
-60 + 60 + 2.5b + b2 = 0 + 60

Combine like terms: -60 + 60 = 0
0 + 2.5b + b2 = 0 + 60
2.5b + b2 = 0 + 60

Combine like terms: 0 + 60 = 60
2.5b + b2 = 60

The b term is 2.5b.  Take half its coefficient (1.25).
Square it (1.5625) and add it to both sides.

Add '1.5625' to each side of the equation.
2.5b + 1.5625 + b2 = 60 + 1.5625

Reorder the terms:
1.5625 + 2.5b + b2 = 60 + 1.5625

Combine like terms: 60 + 1.5625 = 61.5625
1.5625 + 2.5b + b2 = 61.5625

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(b + 1.25)(b + 1.25) = 61.5625

Calculate the square root of the right side: 7.846177413
