Solution for (m+10)(m-4)=8 equation:


Simplifying
(m + 10)(m + -4) = 8

Reorder the terms:
(10 + m)(m + -4) = 8

Reorder the terms:
(10 + m)(-4 + m) = 8

Multiply (10 + m) * (-4 + m)
(10(-4 + m) + m(-4 + m)) = 8
((-4 * 10 + m * 10) + m(-4 + m)) = 8
((-40 + 10m) + m(-4 + m)) = 8
(-40 + 10m + (-4 * m + m * m)) = 8
(-40 + 10m + (-4m + m2)) = 8

Combine like terms: 10m + -4m = 6m
(-40 + 6m + m2) = 8

Solving
-40 + 6m + m2 = 8

Solving for variable 'm'.

Reorder the terms:
-40 + -8 + 6m + m2 = 8 + -8

Combine like terms: -40 + -8 = -48
-48 + 6m + m2 = 8 + -8

Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0
-48 + 6m + m2 = 0

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '48' to each side of the equation.
-48 + 6m + 48 + m2 = 0 + 48

Reorder the terms:
-48 + 48 + 6m + m2 = 0 + 48

Combine like terms: -48 + 48 = 0
0 + 6m + m2 = 0 + 48
6m + m2 = 0 + 48

Combine like terms: 0 + 48 = 48
6m + m2 = 48

The m term is 6m.  Take half its coefficient (3).
Square it (9) and add it to both sides.
