Simplifying
(2x + 1)(x + 4) = 10

Reorder the terms:
(1 + 2x)(x + 4) = 10

Reorder the terms:
(1 + 2x)(4 + x) = 10

Multiply (1 + 2x) * (4 + x)
(1(4 + x) + 2x * (4 + x)) = 10
((4 * 1 + x * 1) + 2x * (4 + x)) = 10
((4 + 1x) + 2x * (4 + x)) = 10
(4 + 1x + (4 * 2x + x * 2x)) = 10
(4 + 1x + (8x + 2x2)) = 10

Combine like terms: 1x + 8x = 9x
(4 + 9x + 2x2) = 10

4 + -10 + 9x + 2x2 = 10 + -10

Combine like terms: 4 + -10 = -6
-6 + 9x + 2x2 = 10 + -10

Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0
-6 + 9x + 2x2 = 0

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
2 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '2'.
-3 + 4.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '3' to each side of the equation.
-3 + 4.5x + 3 + x2 = 0 + 3

Reorder the terms:
-3 + 3 + 4.5x + x2 = 0 + 3

Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0
0 + 4.5x + x2 = 0 + 3
4.5x + x2 = 0 + 3
