According to the Quadratic Equation of <em>x² - 10x + </em><em>24,</em><em> </em>you have to find two numbers that when added up to 10, they also multiply up to 24, and those would be 4 and 6, and determining which signs each quantities get would depend on the sign in the midst of the equation [-], so in this case, both 6 and 4 get the negative symbol because-6 - 4 gives you -10, which is what you see in the midst of the equation. So with that, you have your answer.
