The solution

You have entered [src]
               x                       
20000 - 2*x - ---*(20000 - 2*x) = 15842
              100                      
$$- \frac{x}{100} \left(20000 - 2 x\right) + \left(20000 - 2 x\right) = 15842$$
Detail solution
Move right part of the equation to
left part with negative sign.

The equation is transformed from
$$- \frac{x}{100} \left(20000 - 2 x\right) + \left(20000 - 2 x\right) = 15842$$
to
$$\left(- \frac{x}{100} \left(20000 - 2 x\right) + \left(20000 - 2 x\right)\right) - 15842 = 0$$
Expand the expression in the equation
$$\left(- \frac{x}{100} \left(20000 - 2 x\right) + \left(20000 - 2 x\right)\right) - 15842 = 0$$
We get the quadratic equation
$$\frac{x^{2}}{50} - 202 x + 4158 = 0$$
This equation is of the form
a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0

A quadratic equation can be solved
using the discriminant.
The roots of the quadratic equation:
$$x_{1} = \frac{\sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
$$x_{2} = \frac{- \sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
where D = b^2 - 4*a*c - it is the discriminant.
Because
$$a = \frac{1}{50}$$
$$b = -202$$
$$c = 4158$$
, then
D = b^2 - 4 * a * c = 

(-202)^2 - 4 * (1/50) * (4158) = 1011784/25

Because D > 0, then the equation has two roots.
x1 = (-b + sqrt(D)) / (2*a)

x2 = (-b - sqrt(D)) / (2*a)

or
$$x_{1} = 10 \sqrt{252946} + 5050$$
$$x_{2} = 5050 - 10 \sqrt{252946}$$
