4\left(\left(1+x_{1}\right)\left(9-x_{1}\right)-8x_{2}\right)=0
Multiply both sides of the equation by 2\left(-x_{1}+9\right).
4\left(9+8x_{1}-x_{1}^{2}-8x_{2}\right)=0
Use the distributive property to multiply 1+x_{1} by 9-x_{1} and combine like terms.
36+32x_{1}-4x_{1}^{2}-32x_{2}=0
Use the distributive property to multiply 4 by 9+8x_{1}-x_{1}^{2}-8x_{2}.
32x_{1}-4x_{1}^{2}-32x_{2}=-36
Subtract 36 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-4x_{1}^{2}-32x_{2}=-36-32x_{1}
Subtract 32x_{1} from both sides.
-32x_{2}=-36-32x_{1}+4x_{1}^{2}
Add 4x_{1}^{2} to both sides.
-32x_{2}=4x_{1}^{2}-32x_{1}-36
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-32x_{2}}{-32}=\frac{4\left(x_{1}-9\right)\left(x_{1}+1\right)}{-32}
Divide both sides by -32.
x_{2}=\frac{4\left(x_{1}-9\right)\left(x_{1}+1\right)}{-32}
Dividing by -32 undoes the multiplication by -32.
x_{2}=-\frac{\left(x_{1}-9\right)\left(x_{1}+1\right)}{8}
Divide 4\left(-9+x_{1}\right)\left(1+x_{1}\right) by -32.
