Solution for 20=c(c-8) equation:


Simplifying
20 = c(c + -8)

Reorder the terms:
20 = c(-8 + c)
20 = (-8 * c + c * c)
20 = (-8c + c2)

Solving
20 = -8c + c2

Solving for variable 'c'.

Reorder the terms:
20 + 8c + -1c2 = -8c + 8c + c2 + -1c2

Combine like terms: -8c + 8c = 0
20 + 8c + -1c2 = 0 + c2 + -1c2
20 + 8c + -1c2 = c2 + -1c2

Combine like terms: c2 + -1c2 = 0
20 + 8c + -1c2 = 0

Factor a trinomial.
(10 + -1c)(2 + c) = 0

Subproblem 1

Set the factor '(10 + -1c)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 10 + -1c = 0 Solving 10 + -1c = 0 Move all terms containing c to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-10' to each side of the equation. 10 + -10 + -1c = 0 + -10 Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0 0 + -1c = 0 + -10 -1c = 0 + -10 Combine like terms: 0 + -10 = -10 -1c = -10 Divide each side by '-1'. c = 10 Simplifying c = 10

Subproblem 2

Set the factor '(2 + c)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 2 + c = 0 Solving 2 + c = 0 Move all terms containing c to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2' to each side of the equation. 2 + -2 + c = 0 + -2 Combine like terms: 2 + -2 = 0 0 + c = 0 + -2 c = 0 + -2 Combine like terms: 0 + -2 = -2 c = -2 Simplifying c = -2

Solution

c = {10, -2}
