Solution for (r+4)(r+2)=1 equation:


Simplifying
(r + 4)(r + 2) = 1

Reorder the terms:
(4 + r)(r + 2) = 1

Reorder the terms:
(4 + r)(2 + r) = 1

Multiply (4 + r) * (2 + r)
(4(2 + r) + r(2 + r)) = 1
((2 * 4 + r * 4) + r(2 + r)) = 1
((8 + 4r) + r(2 + r)) = 1
(8 + 4r + (2 * r + r * r)) = 1
(8 + 4r + (2r + r2)) = 1

Combine like terms: 4r + 2r = 6r
(8 + 6r + r2) = 1

Solving
8 + 6r + r2 = 1

Solving for variable 'r'.

Reorder the terms:
8 + -1 + 6r + r2 = 1 + -1

Combine like terms: 8 + -1 = 7
7 + 6r + r2 = 1 + -1

Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0
7 + 6r + r2 = 0

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-7' to each side of the equation.
7 + 6r + -7 + r2 = 0 + -7

Reorder the terms:
7 + -7 + 6r + r2 = 0 + -7

Combine like terms: 7 + -7 = 0
0 + 6r + r2 = 0 + -7
6r + r2 = 0 + -7

Combine like terms: 0 + -7 = -7
6r + r2 = -7

The r term is 6r.  Take half its coefficient (3).
Square it (9) and add it to both sides.

Add '9' to each side of the equation.
6r + 9 + r2 = -7 + 9

Reorder the terms:
9 + 6r + r2 = -7 + 9

Combine like terms: -7 + 9 = 2
9 + 6r + r2 = 2
