Solution for (m+6)(m-2)=0 equation:


Simplifying
(m + 6)(m + -2) = 0

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

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

Multiply (6 + m) * (-2 + m)
(6(-2 + m) + m(-2 + m)) = 0
((-2 * 6 + m * 6) + m(-2 + m)) = 0
((-12 + 6m) + m(-2 + m)) = 0
(-12 + 6m + (-2 * m + m * m)) = 0
(-12 + 6m + (-2m + m2)) = 0

Combine like terms: 6m + -2m = 4m
(-12 + 4m + m2) = 0

Solving
-12 + 4m + m2 = 0

Solving for variable 'm'.

Factor a trinomial.

Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(-6 + -1m)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -6 + -1m = 0 Solving -6 + -1m = 0 Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '6' to each side of the equation. -6 + 6 + -1m = 0 + 6 Combine like terms: -6 + 6 = 0 0 + -1m = 0 + 6 -1m = 0 + 6 Combine like terms: 0 + 6 = 6 -1m = 6 Divide each side by '-1'. m = -6 Simplifying m = -6

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(2 + -1m)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 2 + -1m = 0 Solving 2 + -1m = 0 Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2' to each side of the equation. 2 + -2 + -1m = 0 + -2 Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0 0 + -1m = 0 + -2 -1m = 0 + -2 Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2 -1m = -2 Divide each side by '-1'. m = 2 Simplifying m = 2

Solution

m = {-6, 2}
