Simplifying
(x + 10)(x + 20) = 180

Reorder the terms:
(10 + x)(x + 20) = 180

Reorder the terms:
(10 + x)(20 + x) = 180

Multiply (10 + x) * (20 + x)
(10(20 + x) + x(20 + x)) = 180
((20 * 10 + x * 10) + x(20 + x)) = 180
((200 + 10x) + x(20 + x)) = 180
(200 + 10x + (20 * x + x * x)) = 180
(200 + 10x + (20x + x2)) = 180

Combine like terms: 10x + 20x = 30x
(200 + 30x + x2) = 180
