Solution for (2x-1)(x-4)=0 equation:


Simplifying
(2x + -1)(x + -4) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-1 + 2x)(x + -4) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-1 + 2x)(-4 + x) = 0

Multiply (-1 + 2x) * (-4 + x)
(-1(-4 + x) + 2x * (-4 + x)) = 0
((-4 * -1 + x * -1) + 2x * (-4 + x)) = 0
((4 + -1x) + 2x * (-4 + x)) = 0
(4 + -1x + (-4 * 2x + x * 2x)) = 0
(4 + -1x + (-8x + 2x2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -1x + -8x = -9x
