(x-8)(x-3)=

Solution for (x-8)(x-3)= equation:

Simplifying
(x + -8)(x + -3) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-8 + x)(x + -3) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-8 + x)(-3 + x) = 0

Multiply (-8 + x) * (-3 + x)
(-8(-3 + x) + x(-3 + x)) = 0
((-3 * -8 + x * -8) + x(-3 + x)) = 0
((24 + -8x) + x(-3 + x)) = 0
(24 + -8x + (-3 * x + x * x)) = 0
(24 + -8x + (-3x + x2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -8x + -3x = -11x
(24 + -11x + x2) = 0

Solving
24 + -11x + x2 = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.
