Solution for x=(20-2x)(40-2x) equation:


Simplifying
x = (20 + -2x)(40 + -2x)

Multiply (20 + -2x) * (40 + -2x)
x = (20(40 + -2x) + -2x * (40 + -2x))
x = ((40 * 20 + -2x * 20) + -2x * (40 + -2x))
x = ((800 + -40x) + -2x * (40 + -2x))
x = (800 + -40x + (40 * -2x + -2x * -2x))
x = (800 + -40x + (-80x + 4x2))

Combine like terms: -40x + -80x = -120x
x = (800 + -120x + 4x2)

Solving
x = 800 + -120x + 4x2

Solving for variable 'x'.

Reorder the terms:

-800 + 121x + -4x2 = 0 + 4x2 + -4x2
-800 + 121x + -4x2 = 4x2 + -4x2

Combine like terms: 4x2 + -4x2 = 0
-800 + 121x + -4x2 = 0

Begin completing the square.  Divide all terms by
-4 the coefficient of the squared term: 

Divide each side by '-4'.
200 + -30.25x + x2 = 0

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-200' to each side of the equation.
200 + -30.25x + -200 + x2 = 0 + -200

Reorder the terms:
200 + -200 + -30.25x + x2 = 0 + -200

Combine like terms: 200 + -200 = 0
0 + -30.25x + x2 = 0 + -200
-30.25x + x2 = 0 + -200
