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

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

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

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

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

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

Combine like terms: -2m + 5m = 3m
(-5 + 3m + 2m2) = 0

Solving
-5 + 3m + 2m2 = 0

Solving for variable 'm'.
