Solution for (x-9)*(x+12)=x equation:


Simplifying
(x + -9)(x + 12) = x

Reorder the terms:
(-9 + x)(x + 12) = x

Reorder the terms:
(-9 + x)(12 + x) = x

Multiply (-9 + x) * (12 + x)
(-9(12 + x) + x(12 + x)) = x
((12 * -9 + x * -9) + x(12 + x)) = x
((-108 + -9x) + x(12 + x)) = x
(-108 + -9x + (12 * x + x * x)) = x
(-108 + -9x + (12x + x2)) = x

Combine like terms: -9x + 12x = 3x
(-108 + 3x + x2) = x

Solving
-108 + 3x + x2 = x

Solving for variable 'x'.
