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


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

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

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

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

Combine like terms: -4x + 4x = 0
(-8 + 0 + 2x2) = (x)(2x + -1)
(-8 + 2x2) = (x)(2x + -1)
