Solution for 3(x+5)=2x(x+10) equation:


Simplifying
3(x + 5) = 2x(x + 10)

Reorder the terms:
3(5 + x) = 2x(x + 10)
(5 * 3 + x * 3) = 2x(x + 10)
(15 + 3x) = 2x(x + 10)

Reorder the terms:
15 + 3x = 2x(10 + x)
15 + 3x = (10 * 2x + x * 2x)
15 + 3x = (20x + 2x2)

Solving
15 + 3x = 20x + 2x2

Solving for variable 'x'.

Combine like terms: 3x + -20x = -17x
15 + -17x + -2x2 = 20x + 2x2 + -20x + -2x2

Reorder the terms:
15 + -17x + -2x2 = 20x + -20x + 2x2 + -2x2

Combine like terms: 20x + -20x = 0
15 + -17x + -2x2 = 0 + 2x2 + -2x2
15 + -17x + -2x2 = 2x2 + -2x2

Combine like terms: 2x2 + -2x2 = 0
15 + -17x + -2x2 = 0

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-2 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-2'.
-7.5 + 8.5x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '7.5' to each side of the equation.
-7.5 + 8.5x + 7.5 + x2 = 0 + 7.5

Reorder the terms:
-7.5 + 7.5 + 8.5x + x2 = 0 + 7.5

Combine like terms: -7.5 + 7.5 = 0.0
0.0 + 8.5x + x2 = 0 + 7.5
8.5x + x2 = 0 + 7.5

Combine like terms: 0 + 7.5 = 7.5
8.5x + x2 = 7.5

The x term is 8.5x.  Take half its coefficient (4.25).
Square it (18.0625) and add it to both sides.

Add '18.0625' to each side of the equation.
8.5x + 18.0625 + x2 = 7.5 + 18.0625

Reorder the terms:
18.0625 + 8.5x + x2 = 7.5 + 18.0625

Combine like terms: 7.5 + 18.0625 = 25.5625
18.0625 + 8.5x + x2 = 25.5625
