(4r-2)(5r-4)=

Solution for (4r-2)(5r-4)= equation:

Simplifying
(4r + -2)(5r + -4) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-2 + 4r)(5r + -4) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-2 + 4r)(-4 + 5r) = 0

Multiply (-2 + 4r) * (-4 + 5r)
(-2(-4 + 5r) + 4r * (-4 + 5r)) = 0
((-4 * -2 + 5r * -2) + 4r * (-4 + 5r)) = 0
((8 + -10r) + 4r * (-4 + 5r)) = 0
(8 + -10r + (-4 * 4r + 5r * 4r)) = 0
(8 + -10r + (-16r + 20r2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -10r + -16r = -26r
(8 + -26r + 20r2) = 0

Solving
8 + -26r + 20r2 = 0

Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0
0 + -5r = 0 + -4
-5r = 0 + -4

Combine like terms: 0 + -4 = -4
-5r = -4

Divide each side by '-5'.
r = 0.8

Simplifying
r = 0.8
Solution
r = {0.5, 0.8}
