(x-16)(x-16)=

Solution for (x-16)(x-16)= equation:

Simplifying
(x + -16)(x + -16) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-16 + x)(x + -16) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-16 + x)(-16 + x) = 0

Multiply (-16 + x) * (-16 + x)
(-16(-16 + x) + x(-16 + x)) = 0
((-16 * -16 + x * -16) + x(-16 + x)) = 0
((256 + -16x) + x(-16 + x)) = 0
(256 + -16x + (-16 * x + x * x)) = 0
(256 + -16x + (-16x + x2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -16x + -16x = -32x
(256 + -32x + x2) = 0

Solving
256 + -32x + x2 = 0
