Solution for 280=(n+2)(n+5) equation:


Simplifying
280 = (n + 2)(n + 5)

Reorder the terms:
280 = (2 + n)(n + 5)

Reorder the terms:
280 = (2 + n)(5 + n)

Multiply (2 + n) * (5 + n)
280 = (2(5 + n) + n(5 + n))
280 = ((5 * 2 + n * 2) + n(5 + n))
280 = ((10 + 2n) + n(5 + n))
280 = (10 + 2n + (5 * n + n * n))
280 = (10 + 2n + (5n + n2))

Combine like terms: 2n + 5n = 7n
280 = (10 + 7n + n2)

Solving
280 = 10 + 7n + n2

Solving for variable 'n'.

Combine like terms: 280 + -10 = 270
270 + -7n + -1n2 = 10 + 7n + n2 + -10 + -7n + -1n2

Reorder the terms:
270 + -7n + -1n2 = 10 + -10 + 7n + -7n + n2 + -1n2

Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0
270 + -7n + -1n2 = 0 + 7n + -7n + n2 + -1n2
270 + -7n + -1n2 = 7n + -7n + n2 + -1n2

Combine like terms: 7n + -7n = 0
270 + -7n + -1n2 = 0 + n2 + -1n2
270 + -7n + -1n2 = n2 + -1n2

Combine like terms: n2 + -1n2 = 0
270 + -7n + -1n2 = 0

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-1 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-1'.
-270 + 7n + n2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '270' to each side of the equation.
-270 + 7n + 270 + n2 = 0 + 270

Reorder the terms:
-270 + 270 + 7n + n2 = 0 + 270

Combine like terms: -270 + 270 = 0
0 + 7n + n2 = 0 + 270
7n + n2 = 0 + 270

Combine like terms: 0 + 270 = 270
7n + n2 = 270

The n term is 7n.  Take half its coefficient (3.5).
Square it (12.25) and add it to both sides.

Add '12.25' to each side of the equation.
7n + 12.25 + n2 = 270 + 12.25

Reorder the terms:
12.25 + 7n + n2 = 270 + 12.25

Combine like terms: 270 + 12.25 = 282.25
12.25 + 7n + n2 = 282.25
