Solution for (m+15)(m-17)=0 equation:


Simplifying
(m + 15)(m + -17) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(15 + m)(m + -17) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(15 + m)(-17 + m) = 0

Multiply (15 + m) * (-17 + m)
(15(-17 + m) + m(-17 + m)) = 0
((-17 * 15 + m * 15) + m(-17 + m)) = 0
((-255 + 15m) + m(-17 + m)) = 0
(-255 + 15m + (-17 * m + m * m)) = 0
(-255 + 15m + (-17m + m2)) = 0

Combine like terms: 15m + -17m = -2m
(-255 + -2m + m2) = 0

Solving
-255 + -2m + m2 = 0
