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


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

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

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

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

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

Reorder the terms:
5 + 6x + x2 = (-1 + x)(x + 6)

Reorder the terms:
5 + 6x + x2 = (-1 + x)(6 + x)

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

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

Add '-1x2' to each side of the equation.
5 + 6x + x2 + -1x2 = -6 + 5x + x2 + -1x2

Combine like terms: x2 + -1x2 = 0
5 + 6x + 0 = -6 + 5x + x2 + -1x2
5 + 6x = -6 + 5x + x2 + -1x2

Combine like terms: x2 + -1x2 = 0
5 + 6x = -6 + 5x + 0
5 + 6x = -6 + 5x
