(x+8)(x-6)=

Solution for (x+8)(x-6)= equation:

Simplifying
(x + 8)(x + -6) = 0

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

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

Multiply (8 + x) * (-6 + x)
(8(-6 + x) + x(-6 + x)) = 0
((-6 * 8 + x * 8) + x(-6 + x)) = 0
((-48 + 8x) + x(-6 + x)) = 0
(-48 + 8x + (-6 * x + x * x)) = 0
(-48 + 8x + (-6x + x2)) = 0

Combine like terms: 8x + -6x = 2x
(-48 + 2x + x2) = 0

Solving
-48 + 2x + x2 = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.
