Solving
-60glo + -5glox + 5glox2 = 85glo

Solving for variable 'g'.

Move all terms containing g to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-85glo' to each side of the equation.
-60glo + -5glox + -85glo + 5glox2 = 85glo + -85glo

Reorder the terms:
-60glo + -85glo + -5glox + 5glox2 = 85glo + -85glo

Combine like terms: -60glo + -85glo = -145glo
-145glo + -5glox + 5glox2 = 85glo + -85glo

Combine like terms: 85glo + -85glo = 0
-145glo + -5glox + 5glox2 = 0

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), '5glo'.
5glo(-29 + -1x + x2) = 0

Ignore the factor 5.

Subproblem 1

Set the factor 'glo' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying glo = 0 Solving glo = 0 Move all terms containing g to the left, all other terms to the right. Simplifying glo = 0 The solution to this equation could not be determined. This subproblem is being ignored because a solution could not be determined.

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(-29 + -1x + x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -29 + -1x + x2 = 0 Solving -29 + -1x + x2 = 0 Move all terms containing g to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '29' to each side of the equation. -29 + -1x + 29 + x2 = 0 + 29 Reorder the terms: -29 + 29 + -1x + x2 = 0 + 29 Combine like terms: -29 + 29 = 0 0 + -1x + x2 = 0 + 29 -1x + x2 = 0 + 29 Combine like terms: 0 + 29 = 29 -1x + x2 = 29 Add 'x' to each side of the equation. -1x + x + x2 = 29 + x Combine like terms: -1x + x = 0 0 + x2 = 29 + x x2 = 29 + x Add '-1x2' to each side of the equation. x2 + -1x2 = 29 + x + -1x2 Combine like terms: x2 + -1x2 = 0 0 = 29 + x + -1x2 Simplifying 0 = 29 + x + -1x2 The solution to this equation could not be determined. This subproblem is being ignored because a solution could not be determined. The solution to this equation could not be determined.
