-10 + 2x = x(-6 + x)
-10 + 2x = (-6 * x + x * x)
-10 + 2x = (-6x + x2)

Solving
-10 + 2x = -6x + x2

Solving for variable 'x'.

Combine like terms: 2x + 6x = 8x
-10 + 8x + -1x2 = -6x + x2 + 6x + -1x2

Reorder the terms:
-10 + 8x + -1x2 = -6x + 6x + x2 + -1x2

Combine like terms: -6x + 6x = 0
-10 + 8x + -1x2 = 0 + x2 + -1x2
-10 + 8x + -1x2 = x2 + -1x2

Combine like terms: x2 + -1x2 = 0
-10 + 8x + -1x2 = 0

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-1 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-1'.
10 + -8x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-10' to each side of the equation.
10 + -8x + -10 + x2 = 0 + -10
