Solution for 0.6(x-6)(x+10)=0 equation:


Simplifying
0.6(x + -6)(x + 10) = 0

Reorder the terms:
0.6(-6 + x)(x + 10) = 0

Reorder the terms:
0.6(-6 + x)(10 + x) = 0

Multiply (-6 + x) * (10 + x)
0.6(-6(10 + x) + x(10 + x)) = 0
0.6((10 * -6 + x * -6) + x(10 + x)) = 0
0.6((-60 + -6x) + x(10 + x)) = 0
0.6(-60 + -6x + (10 * x + x * x)) = 0
0.6(-60 + -6x + (10x + x2)) = 0

Combine like terms: -6x + 10x = 4x
0.6(-60 + 4x + x2) = 0
(-60 * 0.6 + 4x * 0.6 + x2 * 0.6) = 0
(-36 + 2.4x + 0.6x2) = 0

Solving
-36 + 2.4x + 0.6x2 = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
0.6 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '0.6'.
-60 + 4x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '60' to each side of the equation.
-60 + 4x + 60 + x2 = 0 + 60

Reorder the terms:
-60 + 60 + 4x + x2 = 0 + 60

Combine like terms: -60 + 60 = 0
0 + 4x + x2 = 0 + 60
4x + x2 = 0 + 60

Combine like terms: 0 + 60 = 60
4x + x2 = 60

The x term is 4x.  Take half its coefficient (2).
Square it (4) and add it to both sides.

Add '4' to each side of the equation.
4x + 4 + x2 = 60 + 4

Reorder the terms:
4 + 4x + x2 = 60 + 4

Combine like terms: 60 + 4 = 64
4 + 4x + x2 = 64

Factor a perfect square on the left side:
(x + 2)(x + 2) = 64

Calculate the square root of the right side: 8

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + 2) equal to 8 and -8.

Subproblem 1

x + 2 = 8 Simplifying x + 2 = 8 Reorder the terms: 2 + x = 8 Solving 2 + x = 8 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2' to each side of the equation. 2 + -2 + x = 8 + -2 Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0 0 + x = 8 + -2 x = 8 + -2 Combine like terms: 8 + -2 = 6 x = 6 Simplifying x = 6

Subproblem 2

x + 2 = -8 Simplifying x + 2 = -8 Reorder the terms: 2 + x = -8 Solving 2 + x = -8 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2' to each side of the equation. 2 + -2 + x = -8 + -2 Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0 0 + x = -8 + -2 x = -8 + -2 Combine like terms: -8 + -2 = -10 x = -10 Simplifying x = -10

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. x = {6, -10}
