(x-3)(x-1)=

Solution for (x-3)(x-1)= equation:

Simplifying
(x + -3)(x + -1) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-3 + x)(x + -1) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-3 + x)(-1 + x) = 0

Multiply (-3 + x) * (-1 + x)
(-3(-1 + x) + x(-1 + x)) = 0
((-1 * -3 + x * -3) + x(-1 + x)) = 0
((3 + -3x) + x(-1 + x)) = 0
(3 + -3x + (-1 * x + x * x)) = 0
(3 + -3x + (-1x + x2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -3x + -1x = -4x
(3 + -4x + x2) = 0

Solving
3 + -4x + x2 = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3' to each side of the equation.
3 + -3 + -1x = 0 + -3

Combine like terms: 3 + -3 = 0
0 + -1x = 0 + -3
-1x = 0 + -3

Combine like terms: 0 + -3 = -3
-1x = -3

Divide each side by '-1'.
x = 3

Simplifying
x = 3
Solution
x = {1, 3}
