Question

Can someone please help

Answer 1

Answer:

(x+5) and (x-7).

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is :

$x^2-2x-35$

We need to write it in factored form.

We know that,

7×5 = 35 and 7-5 = 2

So,

$x^2-2x-35=x^2-7x+5x-35\\\\=x(x-7)+5(x-7)\\\\=(x+5)(x-7)$

Hence, the required factors are (x+5) and (x-7).
