Solution for (x+2)*(x-3)=10 equation:


Simplifying
(x + 2)(x + -3) = 10

Reorder the terms:
(2 + x)(x + -3) = 10

Reorder the terms:
(2 + x)(-3 + x) = 10

Multiply (2 + x) * (-3 + x)
(2(-3 + x) + x(-3 + x)) = 10
((-3 * 2 + x * 2) + x(-3 + x)) = 10
((-6 + 2x) + x(-3 + x)) = 10
(-6 + 2x + (-3 * x + x * x)) = 10
(-6 + 2x + (-3x + x2)) = 10

Combine like terms: 2x + -3x = -1x
(-6 + -1x + x2) = 10

Solving
-6 + -1x + x2 = 10

Solving for variable 'x'.

Reorder the terms:
-6 + -10 + -1x + x2 = 10 + -10

Combine like terms: -6 + -10 = -16
-16 + -1x + x2 = 10 + -10

Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0
-16 + -1x + x2 = 0

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '16' to each side of the equation.
-16 + -1x + 16 + x2 = 0 + 16

Reorder the terms:
-16 + 16 + -1x + x2 = 0 + 16

Combine like terms: -16 + 16 = 0
0 + -1x + x2 = 0 + 16
-1x + x2 = 0 + 16

Combine like terms: 0 + 16 = 16
-1x + x2 = 16

The x term is -1x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.5).
Square it (0.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
-1x + 0.25 + x2 = 16 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -1x + x2 = 16 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 16 + 0.25 = 16.25
0.25 + -1x + x2 = 16.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + -0.5)(x + -0.5) = 16.25
