(p+6)(p-4)=

Solution for (p+6)(p-4)= equation:

Simplifying
(p + 6)(p + -4) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(6 + p)(p + -4) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(6 + p)(-4 + p) = 0

Multiply (6 + p) * (-4 + p)
(6(-4 + p) + p(-4 + p)) = 0
((-4 * 6 + p * 6) + p(-4 + p)) = 0
((-24 + 6p) + p(-4 + p)) = 0
(-24 + 6p + (-4 * p + p * p)) = 0
(-24 + 6p + (-4p + p2)) = 0

Combine like terms: 6p + -4p = 2p
(-24 + 2p + p2) = 0

Solving
-24 + 2p + p2 = 0

Solving for variable 'p'.

-1p = 0 + -4

Combine like terms: 0 + -4 = -4
-1p = -4

Divide each side by '-1'.
p = 4

Simplifying
p = 4
Solution
p = {-6, 4}
