Solution for 0=(x+5)(x-8) equation: 


Simplifying
0 = (x + 5)(x + -8)

Reorder the terms:
0 = (5 + x)(x + -8)

Reorder the terms:
0 = (5 + x)(-8 + x)

Multiply (5 + x) * (-8 + x)
0 = (5(-8 + x) + x(-8 + x))
0 = ((-8 * 5 + x * 5) + x(-8 + x))
0 = ((-40 + 5x) + x(-8 + x))
0 = (-40 + 5x + (-8 * x + x * x))
0 = (-40 + 5x + (-8x + x2))

Combine like terms: 5x + -8x = -3x
0 = (-40 + -3x + x2)

Solving
0 = -40 + -3x + x2

Solving for variable 'x'.

Combine like terms: 0 + 40 = 40
40 + 3x + -1x2 = -40 + -3x + x2 + 40 + 3x + -1x2

40 + 3x + -1x2 = -40 + 40 + -3x + 3x + x2 + -1x2

Combine like terms: -40 + 40 = 0
40 + 3x + -1x2 = 0 + -3x + 3x + x2 + -1x2
40 + 3x + -1x2 = -3x + 3x + x2 + -1x2

Combine like terms: -3x + 3x = 0
40 + 3x + -1x2 = 0 + x2 + -1x2
40 + 3x + -1x2 = x2 + -1x2

Combine like terms: x2 + -1x2 = 0
40 + 3x + -1x2 = 0
