Solution for =(x-1)(x-5) equation:


Simplifying
0 = (x + -1)(x + -5)

Reorder the terms:
0 = (-1 + x)(x + -5)

Reorder the terms:
0 = (-1 + x)(-5 + x)

Multiply (-1 + x) * (-5 + x)
0 = (-1(-5 + x) + x(-5 + x))
0 = ((-5 * -1 + x * -1) + x(-5 + x))
0 = ((5 + -1x) + x(-5 + x))
0 = (5 + -1x + (-5 * x + x * x))
0 = (5 + -1x + (-5x + x2))

Combine like terms: -1x + -5x = -6x
0 = (5 + -6x + x2)

Solving
0 = 5 + -6x + x2

Solving for variable 'x'.

Combine like terms: 0 + -5 = -5
-5 + 6x + -1x2 = 5 + -6x + x2 + -5 + 6x + -1x2

Reorder the terms:
-5 + 6x + -1x2 = 5 + -5 + -6x + 6x + x2 + -1x2

Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0
-5 + 6x + -1x2 = 0 + -6x + 6x + x2 + -1x2
-5 + 6x + -1x2 = -6x + 6x + x2 + -1x2

Combine like terms: -6x + 6x = 0
-5 + 6x + -1x2 = 0 + x2 + -1x2
-5 + 6x + -1x2 = x2 + -1x2

Combine like terms: x2 + -1x2 = 0
-5 + 6x + -1x2 = 0

Factor a trinomial.
(-5 + x)(1 + -1x) = 0

Subproblem 1

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

Subproblem 2

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

Solution

x = {5, 1}
