Solution for (x+2)*(2x-4)=x(2x-1) equation:


Simplifying
(x + 2)(2x + -4) = x(2x + -1)

Reorder the terms:
(2 + x)(2x + -4) = x(2x + -1)

Reorder the terms:
(2 + x)(-4 + 2x) = x(2x + -1)

Multiply (2 + x) * (-4 + 2x)
(2(-4 + 2x) + x(-4 + 2x)) = x(2x + -1)
((-4 * 2 + 2x * 2) + x(-4 + 2x)) = x(2x + -1)
((-8 + 4x) + x(-4 + 2x)) = x(2x + -1)
(-8 + 4x + (-4 * x + 2x * x)) = x(2x + -1)
(-8 + 4x + (-4x + 2x2)) = x(2x + -1)

Combine like terms: 4x + -4x = 0
(-8 + 0 + 2x2) = x(2x + -1)
(-8 + 2x2) = x(2x + -1)

Reorder the terms:
-8 + 2x2 = x(-1 + 2x)
-8 + 2x2 = (-1 * x + 2x * x)
-8 + 2x2 = (-1x + 2x2)

Add '-2x2' to each side of the equation.
-8 + 2x2 + -2x2 = -1x + 2x2 + -2x2

Combine like terms: 2x2 + -2x2 = 0
-8 + 0 = -1x + 2x2 + -2x2
-8 = -1x + 2x2 + -2x2

Combine like terms: 2x2 + -2x2 = 0
-8 = -1x + 0
-8 = -1x

Solving
-8 = -1x

Solving for variable 'x'.

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

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

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

Add '8' to each side of the equation.
-8 + 8 + x = 0 + 8

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

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

Simplifying
x = 8
