(x-1)(x-36)=

Solution for (x-1)(x-36)= equation:

Simplifying
(x + -1)(x + -36) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-1 + x)(x + -36) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-1 + x)(-36 + x) = 0

Multiply (-1 + x) * (-36 + x)
(-1(-36 + x) + x(-36 + x)) = 0
((-36 * -1 + x * -1) + x(-36 + x)) = 0
((36 + -1x) + x(-36 + x)) = 0
(36 + -1x + (-36 * x + x * x)) = 0
(36 + -1x + (-36x + x2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -1x + -36x = -37x
(36 + -37x + x2) = 0

Solving
36 + -37x + x2 = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Solving
36 + -1x = 0

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

Add '-36' to each side of the equation.
36 + -36 + -1x = 0 + -36

Combine like terms: 36 + -36 = 0
0 + -1x = 0 + -36
-1x = 0 + -36

Combine like terms: 0 + -36 = -36
-1x = -36

Divide each side by '-1'.
x = 36

Simplifying
x = 36
Solution
x = {1, 36}
