(x-8)(4x+1)=

Solution for (x-8)(4x+1)= equation:

Simplifying
(x + -8)(4x + 1) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-8 + x)(4x + 1) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-8 + x)(1 + 4x) = 0

Multiply (-8 + x) * (1 + 4x)
(-8(1 + 4x) + x(1 + 4x)) = 0
((1 * -8 + 4x * -8) + x(1 + 4x)) = 0
((-8 + -32x) + x(1 + 4x)) = 0
(-8 + -32x + (1 * x + 4x * x)) = 0
(-8 + -32x + (1x + 4x2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -32x + 1x = -31x
(-8 + -31x + 4x2) = 0

Solving
-8 + -31x + 4x2 = 0
