(x+5)(2x-3)=0
OpenStudy (soggylearnsandhelps):
Wait thats my answer right there,
OpenStudy (soggylearnsandhelps):
(2x + 5)(x – 3) = 0
(2x + 3)(x + 5) = 0
(2x – 3)(x + 5) = 0
(2x – 5)(x + 3) = 0
OpenStudy (soggylearnsandhelps):
those are the answers,
OpenStudy (soggylearnsandhelps):
My answer is C

Thanks for the help,
OpenStudy (3mar):
You know!, Medals don't matter.
What matters is that you get the idea and can do solving such this yourself.

Yeah, I did solve it myself but I just wanted to reward you because you came on and helped a little!
OpenStudy (soggylearnsandhelps):
