(X-4)(x-18)=x(-14)

Solution for (X-4)(x-18)=x(-14) equation:

(X-4)(X-18)=X(-14)

We move all terms to the left:

(X-4)(X-18)-(X(-14))=0

We multiply parentheses ..

(+X^2-18X-4X+72)-(X(-14))=0


We calculate terms in parentheses: -(X(-14)), so:

X(-14)

We multiply parentheses

-14X

Back to the equation:

-(-14X)


We get rid of parentheses

X^2-18X-4X+14X+72=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

X^2-8X+72=0

a = 1; b = -8; c = +72;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -82-4·1·72
Δ = -224
Delta is less than zero, so there is no solution for the equation
