Question 198542
{{{3-13x=3-8x+x^2}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{0=3-8x+x^2-3+13x}}} Get all terms to the right side.



{{{0=x^2+5x}}} Combine like terms.



{{{x^2+5x=0}}} Rearrange the equation.



{{{x(x+5)=0}}} Factor.



{{{x=0}}} or {{{x+5=0}}} Set each factor equal to zero.



{{{x=0}}} or {{{x=-5}}} Solve for "x"



So the solutions are {{{x=0}}} or {{{x=-5}}}
