Solution for 210.80=(15+x)(10-.20x) equation:


Simplifying
210.80 = (15 + x)(10 + -0.20x)

Multiply (15 + x) * (10 + -0.20x)
210.80 = (15(10 + -0.20x) + x(10 + -0.20x))
210.80 = ((10 * 15 + -0.20x * 15) + x(10 + -0.20x))
210.80 = ((150 + -3x) + x(10 + -0.20x))
210.80 = (150 + -3x + (10 * x + -0.20x * x))
210.80 = (150 + -3x + (10x + -0.20x2))

Combine like terms: -3x + 10x = 7x
210.80 = (150 + 7x + -0.20x2)

Solving
210.80 = 150 + 7x + -0.20x2

Solving for variable 'x'.

Combine like terms: 210.80 + -150 = 60.8
60.8 + -7x + 0.20x2 = 150 + 7x + -0.20x2 + -150 + -7x + 0.20x2

Reorder the terms:
60.8 + -7x + 0.20x2 = 150 + -150 + 7x + -7x + -0.20x2 + 0.20x2

Combine like terms: 150 + -150 = 0
60.8 + -7x + 0.20x2 = 0 + 7x + -7x + -0.20x2 + 0.20x2
60.8 + -7x + 0.20x2 = 7x + -7x + -0.20x2 + 0.20x2

Combine like terms: 7x + -7x = 0
60.8 + -7x + 0.20x2 = 0 + -0.20x2 + 0.20x2
60.8 + -7x + 0.20x2 = -0.20x2 + 0.20x2

Combine like terms: -0.20x2 + 0.20x2 = 0.00
60.8 + -7x + 0.20x2 = 0.00

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

Divide each side by '0.20'.
304 + -35x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-304' to each side of the equation.
304 + -35x + -304 + x2 = 0 + -304

Reorder the terms:
304 + -304 + -35x + x2 = 0 + -304

Combine like terms: 304 + -304 = 0
0 + -35x + x2 = 0 + -304
-35x + x2 = 0 + -304

Combine like terms: 0 + -304 = -304
-35x + x2 = -304

The x term is -35x.  Take half its coefficient (-17.5).
Square it (306.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '306.25' to each side of the equation.
-35x + 306.25 + x2 = -304 + 306.25

Reorder the terms:
306.25 + -35x + x2 = -304 + 306.25

Combine like terms: -304 + 306.25 = 2.25
306.25 + -35x + x2 = 2.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + -17.5)(x + -17.5) = 2.25

Calculate the square root of the right side: 1.5

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + -17.5) equal to 1.5 and -1.5.

Subproblem 1

x + -17.5 = 1.5 Simplifying x + -17.5 = 1.5 Reorder the terms: -17.5 + x = 1.5 Solving -17.5 + x = 1.5 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '17.5' to each side of the equation. -17.5 + 17.5 + x = 1.5 + 17.5 Combine like terms: -17.5 + 17.5 = 0.0 0.0 + x = 1.5 + 17.5 x = 1.5 + 17.5 Combine like terms: 1.5 + 17.5 = 19 x = 19 Simplifying x = 19

Subproblem 2

x + -17.5 = -1.5 Simplifying x + -17.5 = -1.5 Reorder the terms: -17.5 + x = -1.5 Solving -17.5 + x = -1.5 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '17.5' to each side of the equation. -17.5 + 17.5 + x = -1.5 + 17.5 Combine like terms: -17.5 + 17.5 = 0.0 0.0 + x = -1.5 + 17.5 x = -1.5 + 17.5 Combine like terms: -1.5 + 17.5 = 16 x = 16 Simplifying x = 16

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. x = {19, 16}
