(k+1)(5k-2)=

Solution for (k+1)(5k-2)= equation:

Simplifying
(k + 1)(5k + -2) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(1 + k)(5k + -2) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(1 + k)(-2 + 5k) = 0

Multiply (1 + k) * (-2 + 5k)
(1(-2 + 5k) + k(-2 + 5k)) = 0
((-2 * 1 + 5k * 1) + k(-2 + 5k)) = 0
((-2 + 5k) + k(-2 + 5k)) = 0
(-2 + 5k + (-2 * k + 5k * k)) = 0
(-2 + 5k + (-2k + 5k2)) = 0

Combine like terms: 5k + -2k = 3k
(-2 + 3k + 5k2) = 0

Solving
-2 + 3k + 5k2 = 0
