Lorena Villanueva · Answer 1

-2, 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^2 - x - 10 = 0

Factor

(2x-5) (x+2) = 0

Using the zero product property

2x-5 = 0 x+2 = 0

2x=5 x = - 2

x = 5/2 x = - 2

Margaret Rubio · Answer 2

x = 5 / 2 or x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Factor left side of equation.

(2x-5) (x+2) = 0

Step 2: Set factors equal to 0.

2x-5=0 or x+2=0

x = 5 / 2 or x=-2
