Solution for (x+2)(x-2)=3x(x+10) equation:


Simplifying
(x + 2)(x + -2) = 3x(x + 10)

Reorder the terms:
(2 + x)(x + -2) = 3x(x + 10)

Reorder the terms:
(2 + x)(-2 + x) = 3x(x + 10)

Multiply (2 + x) * (-2 + x)
(2(-2 + x) + x(-2 + x)) = 3x(x + 10)
((-2 * 2 + x * 2) + x(-2 + x)) = 3x(x + 10)
((-4 + 2x) + x(-2 + x)) = 3x(x + 10)
(-4 + 2x + (-2 * x + x * x)) = 3x(x + 10)
(-4 + 2x + (-2x + x2)) = 3x(x + 10)

Combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0
(-4 + 0 + x2) = 3x(x + 10)
(-4 + x2) = 3x(x + 10)

-4 + x2 = 3x(10 + x)
-4 + x2 = (10 * 3x + x * 3x)
-4 + x2 = (30x + 3x2)

Solving
-4 + x2 = 30x + 3x2

Solving for variable 'x'.

Reorder the terms:
-4 + -30x + x2 + -3x2 = 30x + 3x2 + -30x + -3x2

Combine like terms: x2 + -3x2 = -2x2
-4 + -30x + -2x2 = 30x + 3x2 + -30x + -3x2

Reorder the terms:
-4 + -30x + -2x2 = 30x + -30x + 3x2 + -3x2

Combine like terms: 30x + -30x = 0
-4 + -30x + -2x2 = 0 + 3x2 + -3x2

Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(2 + 15x + x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 2 + 15x + x2 = 0 Solving 2 + 15x + x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Move the constant term to the right: Add '-2' to each side of the equation. 2 + 15x + -2 + x2 = 0 + -2 Reorder the terms: 2 + -2 + 15x + x2 = 0 + -2 Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0 0 + 15x + x2 = 0 + -2 15x + x2 = 0 + -2 Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2 15x + x2 = -2 The x term is 15x. Take half its coefficient (7.5). Square it (56.25) and add it to both sides. Add '56.25' to each side of the equation. 15x + 56.25 + x2 = -2 + 56.25 Reorder the terms: 56.25 + 15x + x2 = -2 + 56.25 Combine like terms: -2 + 56.25 = 54.25 56.25 + 15x + x2 = 54.25 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + 7.5)(x + 7.5) = 54.25 Calculate the square root of the right side: 7.365459931 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + 7.5) equal to 7.365459931 and -7.365459931.

Subproblem 1

x + 7.5 = 7.365459931 Simplifying x + 7.5 = 7.365459931 Reorder the terms: 7.5 + x = 7.365459931 Solving 7.5 + x = 7.365459931 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-7.5' to each side of the equation. 7.5 + -7.5 + x = 7.365459931 + -7.5 Combine like terms: 7.5 + -7.5 = 0.0 0.0 + x = 7.365459931 + -7.5 x = 7.365459931 + -7.5 Combine like terms: 7.365459931 + -7.5 = -0.134540069 x = -0.134540069 Simplifying x = -0.134540069

Subproblem 2

x + 7.5 = -7.365459931 Simplifying x + 7.5 = -7.365459931 Reorder the terms: 7.5 + x = -7.365459931 Solving 7.5 + x = -7.365459931 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-7.5' to each side of the equation. 7.5 + -7.5 + x = -7.365459931 + -7.5 Combine like terms: 7.5 + -7.5 = 0.0 0.0 + x = -7.365459931 + -7.5 x = -7.365459931 + -7.5 Combine like terms: -7.365459931 + -7.5 = -14.865459931 x = -14.865459931 Simplifying x = -14.865459931
