104(150−x)(18−x)=0
Elimination the left coefficient
(150−x)(18−x)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
150−x=018−x=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
150−x=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−x=0−150
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−x=−150
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
x=150
x=15018−x=0
