Solution for (-2-x)(x+3)=0 equation:


Simplifying
(-2 + -1x)(x + 3) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-2 + -1x)(3 + x) = 0

Multiply (-2 + -1x) * (3 + x)
(-2(3 + x) + -1x * (3 + x)) = 0
((3 * -2 + x * -2) + -1x * (3 + x)) = 0
((-6 + -2x) + -1x * (3 + x)) = 0
(-6 + -2x + (3 * -1x + x * -1x)) = 0
(-6 + -2x + (-3x + -1x2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -2x + -3x = -5x
(-6 + -5x + -1x2) = 0
