Solution for 120=(x-4)(4x-6) equation:


Simplifying
120 = (x + -4)(4x + -6)

Reorder the terms:
120 = (-4 + x)(4x + -6)

Reorder the terms:
120 = (-4 + x)(-6 + 4x)

Multiply (-4 + x) * (-6 + 4x)
120 = (-4(-6 + 4x) + x(-6 + 4x))
120 = ((-6 * -4 + 4x * -4) + x(-6 + 4x))
120 = ((24 + -16x) + x(-6 + 4x))
120 = (24 + -16x + (-6 * x + 4x * x))
120 = (24 + -16x + (-6x + 4x2))

Combine like terms: -16x + -6x = -22x
120 = (24 + -22x + 4x2)

Solving
120 = 24 + -22x + 4x2

Solving for variable 'x'.

Combine like terms: 120 + -24 = 96
96 + 22x + -4x2 = 24 + -22x + 4x2 + -24 + 22x + -4x2

Reorder the terms:
96 + 22x + -4x2 = 24 + -24 + -22x + 22x + 4x2 + -4x2

Combine like terms: 24 + -24 = 0
96 + 22x + -4x2 = 0 + -22x + 22x + 4x2 + -4x2
96 + 22x + -4x2 = -22x + 22x + 4x2 + -4x2

Combine like terms: -22x + 22x = 0
96 + 22x + -4x2 = 0 + 4x2 + -4x2
96 + 22x + -4x2 = 4x2 + -4x2

Combine like terms: 4x2 + -4x2 = 0
96 + 22x + -4x2 = 0

Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(48 + 11x + -2x2)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 48 + 11x + -2x2 = 0 Solving 48 + 11x + -2x2 = 0 Begin completing the square. Divide all terms by -2 the coefficient of the squared term: Divide each side by '-2'. -24 + -5.5x + x2 = 0 Move the constant term to the right: Add '24' to each side of the equation. -24 + -5.5x + 24 + x2 = 0 + 24 Reorder the terms: -24 + 24 + -5.5x + x2 = 0 + 24 Combine like terms: -24 + 24 = 0 0 + -5.5x + x2 = 0 + 24 -5.5x + x2 = 0 + 24 Combine like terms: 0 + 24 = 24 -5.5x + x2 = 24 The x term is -5.5x. Take half its coefficient (-2.75). Square it (7.5625) and add it to both sides. Add '7.5625' to each side of the equation. -5.5x + 7.5625 + x2 = 24 + 7.5625 Reorder the terms: 7.5625 + -5.5x + x2 = 24 + 7.5625 Combine like terms: 24 + 7.5625 = 31.5625 7.5625 + -5.5x + x2 = 31.5625 Factor a perfect square on the left side: (x + -2.75)(x + -2.75) = 31.5625 Calculate the square root of the right side: 5.618051264 Break this problem into two subproblems by setting (x + -2.75) equal to 5.618051264 and -5.618051264.

Subproblem 1
