(x-6)*(x-6)=16

Solution for (x-6)*(x-6)=16 equation:

Simplifying
(x + -6)(x + -6) = 16

Reorder the terms:
(-6 + x)(x + -6) = 16

Reorder the terms:
(-6 + x)(-6 + x) = 16

Multiply (-6 + x) * (-6 + x)
(-6(-6 + x) + x(-6 + x)) = 16
((-6 * -6 + x * -6) + x(-6 + x)) = 16
((36 + -6x) + x(-6 + x)) = 16
(36 + -6x + (-6 * x + x * x)) = 16
(36 + -6x + (-6x + x2)) = 16

Combine like terms: -6x + -6x = -12x
(36 + -12x + x2) = 16

Solving
36 + -12x + x2 = 16

Solving for variable 'x'.

Reorder the terms:
36 + -16 + -12x + x2 = 16 + -16
