Anyone good at factoring??? I can't for the life of me figure this out.

If anyone can figure that out, you will seriously be my hero!! lol

so...wan't me to help,

what do you need it to be as far as factored, what format



and I guess we are still alowed to post on here (Josh, Tom, etc)
 
Omigosh, I love you Josh! lol

I just need it in this form: (x+?)(x+?) kind of thing, just the basic factoring format.

I'm having a huuuuge brainfart or something and I can't figure it out.
 
I'm usually pretty good at it, but


Hmmm...that's a tricky problem...;)

here: thats for if it was 5x^2 and not six.
Factor it:
5x^2 - 25x - 30 = 0 (factor out a 5)
5(x^2 - 5x - 6) = 0 (factor by finding two integers that multiply to equal -6, but add to equal -5, which are 1 and -6)
5(x - 6)(x + 1) = 0 (because the equation equals 0, separate the parentheses into different equations)

x - 6 = 0
x = 6

x + 1 = 0
x = -1

ANSWER: x = 6, -1

i am not sure if this is right tho.
