(x-8)(x+3)=

Solution for (x-8)(x+3)= equation:

Simplifying
(x + -8)(x + 3) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-8 + x)(x + 3) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-8 + x)(3 + x) = 0

Multiply (-8 + x) * (3 + x)
(-8(3 + x) + x(3 + x)) = 0
((3 * -8 + x * -8) + x(3 + x)) = 0
((-24 + -8x) + x(3 + x)) = 0
(-24 + -8x + (3 * x + x * x)) = 0
(-24 + -8x + (3x + x2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -8x + 3x = -5x
(-24 + -5x + x2) = 0

Solving
-24 + -5x + x2 = 0
