(n-2)(2n+5)=0

Solution for (n-2)(2n+5)=0 equation:

Simplifying
(n + -2)(2n + 5) = 0

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

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

Multiply (-2 + n) * (5 + 2n)
(-2(5 + 2n) + n(5 + 2n)) = 0
((5 * -2 + 2n * -2) + n(5 + 2n)) = 0
((-10 + -4n) + n(5 + 2n)) = 0
(-10 + -4n + (5 * n + 2n * n)) = 0
(-10 + -4n + (5n + 2n2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -4n + 5n = 1n
(-10 + 1n + 2n2) = 0

Solving
-10 + 1n + 2n2 = 0

Solving for variable 'n'.
