(b-6)(b-15)=

Solution for (b-6)(b-15)= equation:

Simplifying
(b + -6)(b + -15) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-6 + b)(b + -15) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-6 + b)(-15 + b) = 0

Multiply (-6 + b) * (-15 + b)
(-6(-15 + b) + b(-15 + b)) = 0
((-15 * -6 + b * -6) + b(-15 + b)) = 0
((90 + -6b) + b(-15 + b)) = 0
(90 + -6b + (-15 * b + b * b)) = 0
(90 + -6b + (-15b + b2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -6b + -15b = -21b
(90 + -21b + b2) = 0

Solving
90 + -21b + b2 = 0

Solving for variable 'b'.

-1b = 0 + -15

Combine like terms: 0 + -15 = -15
-1b = -15

Divide each side by '-1'.
b = 15

Simplifying
b = 15
Solution
b = {6, 15}
