(2z+1)(2z-5)=

Solution for (2z+1)(2z-5)= equation:

Simplifying
(2z + 1)(2z + -5) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(1 + 2z)(2z + -5) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(1 + 2z)(-5 + 2z) = 0

Multiply (1 + 2z) * (-5 + 2z)
(1(-5 + 2z) + 2z * (-5 + 2z)) = 0
((-5 * 1 + 2z * 1) + 2z * (-5 + 2z)) = 0
((-5 + 2z) + 2z * (-5 + 2z)) = 0
(-5 + 2z + (-5 * 2z + 2z * 2z)) = 0
(-5 + 2z + (-10z + 4z2)) = 0

Combine like terms: 2z + -10z = -8z
(-5 + -8z + 4z2) = 0

Solving
-5 + -8z + 4z2 = 0

Solving for variable 'z'.

0 + -2z = 0 + -5
-2z = 0 + -5

Combine like terms: 0 + -5 = -5
-2z = -5

Divide each side by '-2'.
z = 2.5

Simplifying
z = 2.5
Solution
z = {-0.5, 2.5}
