(b-4)(b-6)=

Solution for (b-4)(b-6)= equation:

Simplifying
(b + -4)(b + -6) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-4 + b)(b + -6) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-4 + b)(-6 + b) = 0

Multiply (-4 + b) * (-6 + b)
(-4(-6 + b) + b(-6 + b)) = 0
((-6 * -4 + b * -4) + b(-6 + b)) = 0
((24 + -4b) + b(-6 + b)) = 0
(24 + -4b + (-6 * b + b * b)) = 0
(24 + -4b + (-6b + b2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -4b + -6b = -10b
(24 + -10b + b2) = 0

Solving
24 + -10b + b2 = 0

Solving for variable 'b'.

0 + -1b = 0 + -6
-1b = 0 + -6

Combine like terms: 0 + -6 = -6
-1b = -6

Divide each side by '-1'.
b = 6

Simplifying
b = 6
Solution
b = {4, 6}
