Solution for (x-2)(x-8)= equation:


Simplifying
(x + -2)(x + -8) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-2 + x)(x + -8) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-2 + x)(-8 + x) = 0

Multiply (-2 + x) * (-8 + x)
(-2(-8 + x) + x(-8 + x)) = 0
((-8 * -2 + x * -2) + x(-8 + x)) = 0
((16 + -2x) + x(-8 + x)) = 0
(16 + -2x + (-8 * x + x * x)) = 0
(16 + -2x + (-8x + x2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -2x + -8x = -10x
(16 + -10x + x2) = 0

Solving
16 + -10x + x2 = 0
