Solution for 8(m-2)(m+5)=0 equation:


Simplifying
8(m + -2)(m + 5) = 0

Reorder the terms:
8(-2 + m)(m + 5) = 0

Reorder the terms:
8(-2 + m)(5 + m) = 0

Multiply (-2 + m) * (5 + m)
8(-2(5 + m) + m(5 + m)) = 0
8((5 * -2 + m * -2) + m(5 + m)) = 0
8((-10 + -2m) + m(5 + m)) = 0
8(-10 + -2m + (5 * m + m * m)) = 0
8(-10 + -2m + (5m + m2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -2m + 5m = 3m
8(-10 + 3m + m2) = 0
(-10 * 8 + 3m * 8 + m2 * 8) = 0
(-80 + 24m + 8m2) = 0

Solving
-80 + 24m + 8m2 = 0

Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-5 + -1m)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -5 + -1m = 0 Solving -5 + -1m = 0 Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '5' to each side of the equation. -5 + 5 + -1m = 0 + 5 Combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0 0 + -1m = 0 + 5 -1m = 0 + 5 Combine like terms: 0 + 5 = 5 -1m = 5 Divide each side by '-1'. m = -5 Simplifying m = -5

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(2 + -1m)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 2 + -1m = 0 Solving 2 + -1m = 0 Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2' to each side of the equation. 2 + -2 + -1m = 0 + -2 Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0 0 + -1m = 0 + -2 -1m = 0 + -2 Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2 -1m = -2 Divide each side by '-1'. m = 2 Simplifying m = 2

Solution

m = {-5, 2}
