Solution for (5m-1)(m+2)=0 equation:


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

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

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

Multiply (-1 + 5m) * (2 + m)
(-1(2 + m) + 5m * (2 + m)) = 0
((2 * -1 + m * -1) + 5m * (2 + m)) = 0
((-2 + -1m) + 5m * (2 + m)) = 0
(-2 + -1m + (2 * 5m + m * 5m)) = 0
(-2 + -1m + (10m + 5m2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -1m + 10m = 9m
(-2 + 9m + 5m2) = 0

Solving
-2 + 9m + 5m2 = 0

Solving for variable 'm'.
