\left(-c\right)x^{2}+32=2x\left(x-5\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 2.
\left(-c\right)x^{2}+32=2x^{2}-10x
Use the distributive property to multiply 2x by x-5.
\left(-c\right)x^{2}=2x^{2}-10x-32
Subtract 32 from both sides.
-cx^{2}=2x^{2}-10x-32
Reorder the terms.
\left(-x^{2}\right)c=2x^{2}-10x-32
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(-x^{2}\right)c}{-x^{2}}=\frac{2x^{2}-10x-32}{-x^{2}}
Divide both sides by -x^{2}.
c=\frac{2x^{2}-10x-32}{-x^{2}}
Dividing by -x^{2} undoes the multiplication by -x^{2}.
c=-2+\frac{10x+32}{x^{2}}
Divide 2x^{2}-10x-32 by -x^{2}.
