Question

5. Find the solutions of x^2 – X-30 = 0. please show work on how to do it

Answer 1

Answer:

x=6, x= -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the equation

x^2 - x - 30 = 0 ----> (x-6)(x+5)=0

Next find the solution by setting those in the paranthesis equal to zero.

x-6=0 ----> x= 6

x+5=0 ----> x= -5

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

${x}^{2} - x - 30 = 0$

➡️ ${x}^{2} + 5x - 6x - 30 = 0$

➡️ $x \times (x + 5) - 6(x + 5) = 0$

➡️ $(x + 5) \times (x - 6) = 0$

➡️ $x + 5 = 0$

➡️ $x - 6 = 0$

➡️ $x = - 5$

➡️ $x = 6$

➡️ $x_{1} = - 5. \: x_{2} = 6$
