You asked:

Solve the equation \(\left(x - 3\right) \left(x - 4\right) = {\left( x + 5 \right)}^{2}\) for the variable \(x\).

MathBot Answer:

The solution is: \[x = - \frac{13}{17} = -0.\overline{7647058823529411}\]


\[\begin{aligned}x^{2} - 7 x + 12 &= x^{2} + 10 x + 25\\- 17 x &= 13\\x &= - \frac{13}{17}\end{aligned}\]
