Solution for (x+5)*(5x-4)=(x-4)*(1-3x) equation: 


Simplifying
(x + 5)(5x + -4) = (x + -4)(1 + -3x)

Reorder the terms:
(5 + x)(5x + -4) = (x + -4)(1 + -3x)

Reorder the terms:
(5 + x)(-4 + 5x) = (x + -4)(1 + -3x)

Multiply (5 + x) * (-4 + 5x)
(5(-4 + 5x) + x(-4 + 5x)) = (x + -4)(1 + -3x)
((-4 * 5 + 5x * 5) + x(-4 + 5x)) = (x + -4)(1 + -3x)
((-20 + 25x) + x(-4 + 5x)) = (x + -4)(1 + -3x)
(-20 + 25x + (-4 * x + 5x * x)) = (x + -4)(1 + -3x)
(-20 + 25x + (-4x + 5x2)) = (x + -4)(1 + -3x)

Combine like terms: 25x + -4x = 21x
(-20 + 21x + 5x2) = (x + -4)(1 + -3x)

Reorder the terms:
-20 + 21x + 5x2 = (-4 + x)(1 + -3x)

Multiply (-4 + x) * (1 + -3x)
-20 + 21x + 5x2 = (-4(1 + -3x) + x(1 + -3x))
-20 + 21x + 5x2 = ((1 * -4 + -3x * -4) + x(1 + -3x))
-20 + 21x + 5x2 = ((-4 + 12x) + x(1 + -3x))
-20 + 21x + 5x2 = (-4 + 12x + (1 * x + -3x * x))
-20 + 21x + 5x2 = (-4 + 12x + (1x + -3x2))

Combine like terms: 12x + 1x = 13x
-20 + 21x + 5x2 = (-4 + 13x + -3x2)
