Answer:

x = 1  ,  x= -5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2 numbers multiplied to make -10 and sum up to +3 will be :

5 and -2

Now we factorize by splitting +3 into +5 and -2 :

2x²- 2x + 5x -5 = 0

2x(x-1) + 5(x-1)  = 0

(2x+5)(x-1) = 0

Either x-1 = 0      Or 2x+5 = 0

x = 1                    2x = -5

                          x = -5/2

Hope this helped and have a good day
