40x_{1}x_{2}=-20x^{2}
Subtract 20x^{2} from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
40x_{2}x_{1}=-20x^{2}
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{40x_{2}x_{1}}{40x_{2}}=-\frac{20x^{2}}{40x_{2}}
Divide both sides by 40x_{2}.
x_{1}=-\frac{20x^{2}}{40x_{2}}
Dividing by 40x_{2} undoes the multiplication by 40x_{2}.
x_{1}=-\frac{x^{2}}{2x_{2}}
Divide -20x^{2} by 40x_{2}.
40x_{1}x_{2}=-20x^{2}
Subtract 20x^{2} from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
