Solution for (x+2)(x-5)=(x-1)(x-6) equation: 


Simplifying
(x + 2)(x + -5) = (x + -1)(x + -6)

Reorder the terms:
(2 + x)(x + -5) = (x + -1)(x + -6)

Reorder the terms:
(2 + x)(-5 + x) = (x + -1)(x + -6)

Multiply (2 + x) * (-5 + x)
(2(-5 + x) + x(-5 + x)) = (x + -1)(x + -6)
((-5 * 2 + x * 2) + x(-5 + x)) = (x + -1)(x + -6)
((-10 + 2x) + x(-5 + x)) = (x + -1)(x + -6)
(-10 + 2x + (-5 * x + x * x)) = (x + -1)(x + -6)
(-10 + 2x + (-5x + x2)) = (x + -1)(x + -6)

Combine like terms: 2x + -5x = -3x
(-10 + -3x + x2) = (x + -1)(x + -6)

Reorder the terms:
-10 + -3x + x2 = (-1 + x)(x + -6)

Reorder the terms:
-10 + -3x + x2 = (-1 + x)(-6 + x)

Multiply (-1 + x) * (-6 + x)
-10 + -3x + x2 = (-1(-6 + x) + x(-6 + x))
-10 + -3x + x2 = ((-6 * -1 + x * -1) + x(-6 + x))
-10 + -3x + x2 = ((6 + -1x) + x(-6 + x))
-10 + -3x + x2 = (6 + -1x + (-6 * x + x * x))
-10 + -3x + x2 = (6 + -1x + (-6x + x2))

Combine like terms: -1x + -6x = -7x
-10 + -3x + x2 = (6 + -7x + x2)
