Let the solutions be a and b.
a = -2; b = -10
a + b = -2 + (-10) = -12
ab = (-2)(-10) = 20
(x - a)(x - b) = 0
(x - (-2))(x - (-10)) = 0
(x + 2)(x + 10) = 0
x^2 + 10x + 2x + 20 = 0
x^2 + 12x + 20 = 0
-h = 12
h = -12
4k = 20
k = 5
<span>I think you meant this: (3m/m-6)*(5m^3-30m^2/5m^2)
If that's the case, the simplified form:
=3m</span>
Answer:
