36x + 3x2 = (4 * 2x + 2x * 2x)
36x + 3x2 = (8x + 4x2)

Solving
36x + 3x2 = 8x + 4x2

Solving for variable 'x'.

Reorder the terms:
36x + -8x + 3x2 + -4x2 = 8x + 4x2 + -8x + -4x2

Combine like terms: 36x + -8x = 28x
28x + 3x2 + -4x2 = 8x + 4x2 + -8x + -4x2

Combine like terms: 3x2 + -4x2 = -1x2
28x + -1x2 = 8x + 4x2 + -8x + -4x2

Reorder the terms:
28x + -1x2 = 8x + -8x + 4x2 + -4x2

Combine like terms: 8x + -8x = 0
28x + -1x2 = 0 + 4x2 + -4x2
28x + -1x2 = 4x2 + -4x2
