Question

how to fully factorize:
5(x+2) -x(x+2)

Answer 1

1st open the bracket

Answer 2

u will get.....5x+10-x^2-2x
= multiply it with - sign
so u get
x^2-3x-10
use spliting the middle term
x^2-5x+2x-10
x(x-5)+2(x-5)
(x-5)(x+2)
x=5 and -2

Answer 3

There is a common factor that is (x+2). You can do 5(x+2)-x(x+2)=(x+2)(5-x)
