(y-2)(y-3)=6

Solution for (y-2)(y-3)=6 equation:

Simplifying
(y + -2)(y + -3) = 6

Reorder the terms:
(-2 + y)(y + -3) = 6

Reorder the terms:
(-2 + y)(-3 + y) = 6

Multiply (-2 + y) * (-3 + y)
(-2(-3 + y) + y(-3 + y)) = 6
((-3 * -2 + y * -2) + y(-3 + y)) = 6
((6 + -2y) + y(-3 + y)) = 6
(6 + -2y + (-3 * y + y * y)) = 6
(6 + -2y + (-3y + y2)) = 6

Combine like terms: -2y + -3y = -5y
(6 + -5y + y2) = 6

Add '-6' to each side of the equation.
6 + -5y + -6 + y2 = 6 + -6

Reorder the terms:
6 + -6 + -5y + y2 = 6 + -6

Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0
0 + -5y + y2 = 6 + -6
-5y + y2 = 6 + -6

Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0
-5y + y2 = 0

Solving
-5y + y2 = 0
