Only 1% of Students can solve this SAT algebra problem

In this math tutorial, I solve the equation (x+2)(x+3)(x+8)(x+12)=4x² using a clever algebra trick that avoids expanding everything into a complicated quartic equation. By rearranging the factors and multiplying them in pairs, I introduce the substitution d=x²+24 and transform the equation into a much simpler form. This leads naturally to the factorization d+10x=0 and d+15x=0, making it easy to find all the solutions. This is a beautiful example of how pattern recognition can turn a difficult algebra problem into a simple one. If you are searching for algebra tricks, factorization methods, quartic equations, substitution techniques, or Olympiad style math problems, this video will help a lot. This tutorial is perfect for students preparing for exams, competitive math learners, and math enthusiasts who enjoy elegant problem-solving methods. Watch till the end to learn a powerful shortcut that can simplify polynomial equations without lengthy expansions.
