Solution for (x-3)(x+10)=13 equation:


Simplifying
(x + -3)(x + 10) = 13

Reorder the terms:
(-3 + x)(x + 10) = 13

Reorder the terms:
(-3 + x)(10 + x) = 13

Multiply (-3 + x) * (10 + x)
(-3(10 + x) + x(10 + x)) = 13
((10 * -3 + x * -3) + x(10 + x)) = 13
((-30 + -3x) + x(10 + x)) = 13
(-30 + -3x + (10 * x + x * x)) = 13
(-30 + -3x + (10x + x2)) = 13

Combine like terms: -3x + 10x = 7x
(-30 + 7x + x2) = 13

Solving
-30 + 7x + x2 = 13

Solving for variable 'x'.

Reorder the terms:
-30 + -13 + 7x + x2 = 13 + -13

Combine like terms: -30 + -13 = -43
-43 + 7x + x2 = 13 + -13

Combine like terms: 13 + -13 = 0
-43 + 7x + x2 = 0

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '43' to each side of the equation.
-43 + 7x + 43 + x2 = 0 + 43

Reorder the terms:
-43 + 43 + 7x + x2 = 0 + 43

Combine like terms: -43 + 43 = 0
0 + 7x + x2 = 0 + 43
7x + x2 = 0 + 43

Combine like terms: 0 + 43 = 43
7x + x2 = 43

The x term is 7x.  Take half its coefficient (3.5).
Square it (12.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '12.25' to each side of the equation.
7x + 12.25 + x2 = 43 + 12.25

Reorder the terms:
12.25 + 7x + x2 = 43 + 12.25

Combine like terms: 43 + 12.25 = 55.25
12.25 + 7x + x2 = 55.25
