DETAILED EXPLANATION

Look at x%5E2%2B5%2Ax=highlight_red%28+6+%29.
Moved these terms to the left highlight_green%28+-6+%29
It becomes x%5E2%2B5%2Ax-highlight_green%28+6+%29=0.
Look at highlight_red%28+x%5E2%2B5%2Ax-6+%29=0.
Equation highlight_red%28+x%5E2%2B5%2Ax-6=0+%29 is a quadratic equation: x^2+5*x-6 =0, and has solutions 1,-6
It becomes highlight_green%28+0+%29=0.
Result: 0=0
This is an equation! Solutions: x=1,x=-6.
