Answer:

I hope it will helps u

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

x²-3x-10

Now according to the one of the rule of factorization ,

we have to find such two values whose product becomes equal to the

"product of first and last term " and if we sum those numbers it should be equal to the "middle term of it".

so such numbers are   -5x and +2x

if we add or multiply them we get the above

as  adding    -5x+2x=-3x  (middle term)

also multiplying   -5x*2x=-10x²  (product of 1st and last term)

so now , we can write as,

x²-3x-10

=x²-5x+2x-10

now making groups of 2 terms,

=(x²-5x)+(2x-10)

now common

=x(x-5)+2(x-5)

now common(x-5)

=(x-5)(x+2)   This is the required factors.....
