Solution for (m-8)(m+1)=0 equation:


Simplifying
(m + -8)(m + 1) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-8 + m)(m + 1) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-8 + m)(1 + m) = 0

Multiply (-8 + m) * (1 + m)
(-8(1 + m) + m(1 + m)) = 0
((1 * -8 + m * -8) + m(1 + m)) = 0
((-8 + -8m) + m(1 + m)) = 0
(-8 + -8m + (1 * m + m * m)) = 0
(-8 + -8m + (1m + m2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -8m + 1m = -7m
(-8 + -7m + m2) = 0

Solving
-8 + -7m + m2 = 0

Solving for variable 'm'.
