Solution for x=1.05(x-15)(x+12) equation:


Simplifying
x = 1.05(x + -15)(x + 12)

Reorder the terms:
x = 1.05(-15 + x)(x + 12)

Reorder the terms:
x = 1.05(-15 + x)(12 + x)

Multiply (-15 + x) * (12 + x)
x = 1.05(-15(12 + x) + x(12 + x))
x = 1.05((12 * -15 + x * -15) + x(12 + x))
x = 1.05((-180 + -15x) + x(12 + x))
x = 1.05(-180 + -15x + (12 * x + x * x))
x = 1.05(-180 + -15x + (12x + x2))

Combine like terms: -15x + 12x = -3x
x = 1.05(-180 + -3x + x2)
x = (-180 * 1.05 + -3x * 1.05 + x2 * 1.05)
x = (-189 + -3.15x + 1.05x2)

Solving
x = -189 + -3.15x + 1.05x2

Solving for variable 'x'.

Reorder the terms:
189 + x + 3.15x + -1.05x2 = -189 + -3.15x + 1.05x2 + 189 + 3.15x + -1.05x2

Combine like terms: x + 3.15x = 4.15x
189 + 4.15x + -1.05x2 = -189 + -3.15x + 1.05x2 + 189 + 3.15x + -1.05x2

Reorder the terms:
189 + 4.15x + -1.05x2 = -189 + 189 + -3.15x + 3.15x + 1.05x2 + -1.05x2

Combine like terms: -189 + 189 = 0
189 + 4.15x + -1.05x2 = 0 + -3.15x + 3.15x + 1.05x2 + -1.05x2
189 + 4.15x + -1.05x2 = -3.15x + 3.15x + 1.05x2 + -1.05x2

Combine like terms: -3.15x + 3.15x = 0.00
189 + 4.15x + -1.05x2 = 0.00 + 1.05x2 + -1.05x2
189 + 4.15x + -1.05x2 = 1.05x2 + -1.05x2

Combine like terms: 1.05x2 + -1.05x2 = 0.00
189 + 4.15x + -1.05x2 = 0.00
