Answer:
-4x(5x-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
-20x^2 - 12x
-20x^2 = -4*5*x*x = -2*2*5*x*x
-12x = -4*3*x = -2*2*3*x
The common terms are -2*2*x = -4x. Whats left goes inside the parentheses
-4x(5x-3)

Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call the number x. The statement tells us that
x^2 - 10 = 3x, or
x^2-3x-10 = 0
Factoring:
(x-5)(x+2) = 0. Here, we see that there are two solutions: x = 5 and x = -2. So, the negative solution is x = -2.
