Solution for (x)(x)=(x-2)(x-2)-12 equation:


Simplifying
(x)(x) = (x + -2)(x + -2) + -12

Multiply x * x
x2 = (x + -2)(x + -2) + -12

Reorder the terms:
x2 = (-2 + x)(x + -2) + -12

Reorder the terms:
x2 = (-2 + x)(-2 + x) + -12

Multiply (-2 + x) * (-2 + x)
x2 = (-2(-2 + x) + x(-2 + x)) + -12
x2 = ((-2 * -2 + x * -2) + x(-2 + x)) + -12
x2 = ((4 + -2x) + x(-2 + x)) + -12
x2 = (4 + -2x + (-2 * x + x * x)) + -12
x2 = (4 + -2x + (-2x + x2)) + -12

Combine like terms: -2x + -2x = -4x
x2 = (4 + -4x + x2) + -12

Reorder the terms:
x2 = 4 + -12 + -4x + x2

Combine like terms: 4 + -12 = -8
x2 = -8 + -4x + x2

Add '-1x2' to each side of the equation.
x2 + -1x2 = -8 + -4x + x2 + -1x2

Combine like terms: x2 + -1x2 = 0
0 = -8 + -4x + x2 + -1x2

Combine like terms: x2 + -1x2 = 0
0 = -8 + -4x + 0
0 = -8 + -4x

Solving
0 = -8 + -4x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '4x' to each side of the equation.
0 + 4x = -8 + -4x + 4x
Remove the zero:
4x = -8 + -4x + 4x

Combine like terms: -4x + 4x = 0
4x = -8 + 0
4x = -8

Divide each side by '4'.
x = -2

Simplifying
x = -2
