(x+12)(x-6)=

Solution for (x+12)(x-6)= equation:

Simplifying
(x + 12)(x + -6) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(12 + x)(x + -6) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(12 + x)(-6 + x) = 0

Multiply (12 + x) * (-6 + x)
(12(-6 + x) + x(-6 + x)) = 0
((-6 * 12 + x * 12) + x(-6 + x)) = 0
((-72 + 12x) + x(-6 + x)) = 0
(-72 + 12x + (-6 * x + x * x)) = 0
(-72 + 12x + (-6x + x2)) = 0

Combine like terms: 12x + -6x = 6x
(-72 + 6x + x2) = 0

Solving
-72 + 6x + x2 = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.
