Are we supposed to factor this?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
No it doesn't say factor it says this
Solve each quadratic equation. Show your work.
pooja195 (pooja195):
Subtract 10 from both sides.
\[\huge~\rm~x^2+3x−10=10−10\]
\[\huge~\rm~x^2+3x−10=0\]Factor left side of equation.
\[\huge~\rm~(x−2)(x+5)=0\]
pooja195 (pooja195):
From here solve for x
x-2=0
x=?
x+5=0
x=?

How did you get five if we subtract a 3 -10?

-_-;
pooja195 (pooja195):
You get 2 answers not one
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Okay
pooja195 (pooja195):
Try again
pooja195 (pooja195):
(x−2)(x+5)=0
x-2=0
to solve we add 2 to both sides because we are isolating x
x=2
now try
x+5=0

x+5 0
-5 -5 = -5
x=-5?
