Caitlyn Calhoun · Answer 1

Ask which two numbers add up to - 11 and multiply to 30?

That would be; - 6 and - 5

Rewrite the expression using what you have above;

(x - 6) (x - 5)

Dulce Henry · Answer 2

(x-6) (x-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 - 11x + 30

What two numbers multiply together to give us 30 and add together to give us - 11

-6*-5 = 30

-6+-5 = - 11

(x-6) (x-5)
