(m-5)(m+9)=

Solution for (m-5)(m+9)= equation:

Simplifying
(m + -5)(m + 9) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-5 + m)(m + 9) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-5 + m)(9 + m) = 0

Multiply (-5 + m) * (9 + m)
(-5(9 + m) + m(9 + m)) = 0
((9 * -5 + m * -5) + m(9 + m)) = 0
((-45 + -5m) + m(9 + m)) = 0
(-45 + -5m + (9 * m + m * m)) = 0
(-45 + -5m + (9m + m2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -5m + 9m = 4m
(-45 + 4m + m2) = 0

Solving
-45 + 4m + m2 = 0

Solving for variable 'm'.
