Solution for 15x=20x(x-2) equation:



15x=20x(x-2)
We move all terms to the left:
15x-(20x(x-2))=0
We calculate terms in parentheses: -(20x(x-2)), so:
20x(x-2)
We multiply parentheses
20x^2-40x
Back to the equation:
-(20x^2-40x)
We get rid of parentheses
-20x^2+15x+40x=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
-20x^2+55x=0
a = -20; b = 55; c = 0;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 552-4·(-20)·0
Δ = 3025
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{3025}=55$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(55)-55}{2*-20}=\frac{-110}{-40} =2+3/4 $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(55)+55}{2*-20}=\frac{0}{-40} =0 $
