Solution for 0=(5-x)(x-2) equation: 


Simplifying
0 = (5 + -1x)(x + -2)

Reorder the terms:
0 = (5 + -1x)(-2 + x)

Multiply (5 + -1x) * (-2 + x)
0 = (5(-2 + x) + -1x * (-2 + x))
0 = ((-2 * 5 + x * 5) + -1x * (-2 + x))
0 = ((-10 + 5x) + -1x * (-2 + x))
0 = (-10 + 5x + (-2 * -1x + x * -1x))
0 = (-10 + 5x + (2x + -1x2))

Combine like terms: 5x + 2x = 7x
0 = (-10 + 7x + -1x2)

Solving
0 = -10 + 7x + -1x2

Solving for variable 'x'.

Combine like terms: 0 + 10 = 10
10 + -7x + x2 = -10 + 7x + -1x2 + 10 + -7x + x2

Reorder the terms:
10 + -7x + x2 = -10 + 10 + 7x + -7x + -1x2 + x2

Combine like terms: -10 + 10 = 0
10 + -7x + x2 = 0 + 7x + -7x + -1x2 + x2
10 + -7x + x2 = 7x + -7x + -1x2 + x2

Combine like terms: 7x + -7x = 0
10 + -7x + x2 = 0 + -1x2 + x2
10 + -7x + x2 = -1x2 + x2

Combine like terms: -1x2 + x2 = 0
10 + -7x + x2 = 0
