Solution for (12+x)(5+x)=120 equation:


Simplifying
(12 + x)(5 + x) = 120

Multiply (12 + x) * (5 + x)
(12(5 + x) + x(5 + x)) = 120
((5 * 12 + x * 12) + x(5 + x)) = 120
((60 + 12x) + x(5 + x)) = 120
(60 + 12x + (5 * x + x * x)) = 120
(60 + 12x + (5x + x2)) = 120

Combine like terms: 12x + 5x = 17x
(60 + 17x + x2) = 120
