(5 + x)(4 + x) = 52

Multiply (5 + x) * (4 + x)
(5(4 + x) + x(4 + x)) = 52
((4 * 5 + x * 5) + x(4 + x)) = 52
((20 + 5x) + x(4 + x)) = 52
(20 + 5x + (4 * x + x * x)) = 52
(20 + 5x + (4x + x2)) = 52

Combine like terms: 5x + 4x = 9x
(20 + 9x + x2) = 52

Solving
20 + 9x + x2 = 52

Solving for variable 'x'.

Reorder the terms:
20 + -52 + 9x + x2 = 52 + -52
