Solution for (y-4)*(y-4)=2y equation: 


Simplifying
(y + -4)(y + -4) = 2y

Reorder the terms:
(-4 + y)(y + -4) = 2y

Reorder the terms:
(-4 + y)(-4 + y) = 2y

Multiply (-4 + y) * (-4 + y)
(-4(-4 + y) + y(-4 + y)) = 2y
((-4 * -4 + y * -4) + y(-4 + y)) = 2y
((16 + -4y) + y(-4 + y)) = 2y
(16 + -4y + (-4 * y + y * y)) = 2y
(16 + -4y + (-4y + y2)) = 2y

Combine like terms: -4y + -4y = -8y
(16 + -8y + y2) = 2y

Solving
16 + -8y + y2 = 2y

Solving for variable 'y'.

Reorder the terms:
16 + -8y + -2y + y2 = 2y + -2y
