(n+6)(n-6)=5n

Solution for (n+6)(n-6)=5n equation:

Simplifying
(n + 6)(n + -6) = 5n

Reorder the terms:
(6 + n)(n + -6) = 5n

Reorder the terms:
(6 + n)(-6 + n) = 5n

Multiply (6 + n) * (-6 + n)
(6(-6 + n) + n(-6 + n)) = 5n
((-6 * 6 + n * 6) + n(-6 + n)) = 5n
((-36 + 6n) + n(-6 + n)) = 5n
(-36 + 6n + (-6 * n + n * n)) = 5n
(-36 + 6n + (-6n + n2)) = 5n

Combine like terms: 6n + -6n = 0
(-36 + 0 + n2) = 5n
(-36 + n2) = 5n

Solving
-36 + n2 = 5n

Solving for variable 'n'.

Reorder the terms:
-36 + -5n + n2 = 5n + -5n
