Solution for (a-b)(c-d)=x equation:


Simplifying
(a + -1b)(c + -1d) = x

Multiply (a + -1b) * (c + -1d)
(a(c + -1d) + -1b * (c + -1d)) = x
((c * a + -1d * a) + -1b * (c + -1d)) = x
((ac + -1ad) + -1b * (c + -1d)) = x
(ac + -1ad + (c * -1b + -1d * -1b)) = x
(ac + -1ad + (-1bc + 1bd)) = x
(ac + -1ad + -1bc + 1bd) = x

Solving
ac + -1ad + -1bc + 1bd = x

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add 'bc' to each side of the equation.
ac + -1ad + -1bc + bc + 1bd = bc + x

Combine like terms: -1bc + bc = 0
ac + -1ad + 0 + 1bd = bc + x
ac + -1ad + 1bd = bc + x

Add '-1bd' to each side of the equation.
ac + -1ad + 1bd + -1bd = bc + -1bd + x

Combine like terms: 1bd + -1bd = 0
ac + -1ad + 0 = bc + -1bd + x
ac + -1ad = bc + -1bd + x

Reorder the terms:
ac + -1ad + -1bc + bd + -1x = bc + -1bc + -1bd + bd + x + -1x

Combine like terms: bc + -1bc = 0
ac + -1ad + -1bc + bd + -1x = 0 + -1bd + bd + x + -1x
ac + -1ad + -1bc + bd + -1x = -1bd + bd + x + -1x

Combine like terms: -1bd + bd = 0
ac + -1ad + -1bc + bd + -1x = 0 + x + -1x
ac + -1ad + -1bc + bd + -1x = x + -1x

Combine like terms: x + -1x = 0
ac + -1ad + -1bc + bd + -1x = 0
