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

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

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

Multiply (-4 + x) * (4 + x)
(-4(4 + x) + x(4 + x)) = (x + 5)
((4 * -4 + x * -4) + x(4 + x)) = (x + 5)
((-16 + -4x) + x(4 + x)) = (x + 5)
(-16 + -4x + (4 * x + x * x)) = (x + 5)
(-16 + -4x + (4x + x2)) = (x + 5)

Combine like terms: -4x + 4x = 0
(-16 + 0 + x2) = (x + 5)
(-16 + x2) = (x + 5)

-16 + x2 = 5 + x

Solving
-16 + x2 = 5 + x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Reorder the terms:
-16 + -5 + -1x + x2 = 5 + x + -5 + -1x

Combine like terms: -16 + -5 = -21
-21 + -1x + x2 = 5 + x + -5 + -1x

Reorder the terms:
-21 + -1x + x2 = 5 + -5 + x + -1x

Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0
-21 + -1x + x2 = 0 + x + -1x
-21 + -1x + x2 = x + -1x

Combine like terms: x + -1x = 0
-21 + -1x + x2 = 0

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '21' to each side of the equation.
-21 + -1x + 21 + x2 = 0 + 21

Reorder the terms:
-21 + 21 + -1x + x2 = 0 + 21

Combine like terms: -21 + 21 = 0
0 + -1x + x2 = 0 + 21
-1x + x2 = 0 + 21

Combine like terms: 0 + 21 = 21
-1x + x2 = 21

The x term is -1x.  Take half its coefficient (-0.5).
Square it (0.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '0.25' to each side of the equation.
-1x + 0.25 + x2 = 21 + 0.25

Reorder the terms:
0.25 + -1x + x2 = 21 + 0.25

Combine like terms: 21 + 0.25 = 21.25
0.25 + -1x + x2 = 21.25

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + -0.5)(x + -0.5) = 21.25
