(y-5)(y+6)=

Solution for (y-5)(y+6)= equation:

Simplifying
(y + -5)(y + 6) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-5 + y)(y + 6) = 0

Reorder the terms:
(-5 + y)(6 + y) = 0

Multiply (-5 + y) * (6 + y)
(-5(6 + y) + y(6 + y)) = 0
((6 * -5 + y * -5) + y(6 + y)) = 0
((-30 + -5y) + y(6 + y)) = 0
(-30 + -5y + (6 * y + y * y)) = 0
(-30 + -5y + (6y + y2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -5y + 6y = 1y
(-30 + 1y + y2) = 0

Solving
-30 + 1y + y2 = 0

Solving for variable 'y'.

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-5' to each side of the equation.
5 + -5 + -1y = 0 + -5

Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0
0 + -1y = 0 + -5
-1y = 0 + -5

Combine like terms: 0 + -5 = -5
-1y = -5

Divide each side by '-1'.
y = 5

Simplifying
y = 5
Solution
y = {-6, 5}
