Solution for x+2=(x-4)(x-4) equation: 


Simplifying
x + 2 = (x + -4)(x + -4)

Reorder the terms:
2 + x = (x + -4)(x + -4)

Reorder the terms:
2 + x = (-4 + x)(x + -4)

Reorder the terms:
2 + x = (-4 + x)(-4 + x)

Multiply (-4 + x) * (-4 + x)
2 + x = (-4(-4 + x) + x(-4 + x))
2 + x = ((-4 * -4 + x * -4) + x(-4 + x))
2 + x = ((16 + -4x) + x(-4 + x))
2 + x = (16 + -4x + (-4 * x + x * x))
2 + x = (16 + -4x + (-4x + x2))

Combine like terms: -4x + -4x = -8x
2 + x = (16 + -8x + x2)

Solving
2 + x = 16 + -8x + x2

Solving for variable 'x'.
