(x + 4)(x + 4) = 28

Reorder the terms:
(4 + x)(x + 4) = 28

Reorder the terms:
(4 + x)(4 + x) = 28

Multiply (4 + x) * (4 + x)
(4(4 + x) + x(4 + x)) = 28
((4 * 4 + x * 4) + x(4 + x)) = 28
((16 + 4x) + x(4 + x)) = 28
(16 + 4x + (4 * x + x * x)) = 28
(16 + 4x + (4x + x2)) = 28

Combine like terms: 4x + 4x = 8x
(16 + 8x + x2) = 28

Solving
16 + 8x + x2 = 28

Solving for variable 'x'.
