Factors are (3x + 5) and (x - 2). Zeros are -5/3 and 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Given quadratic equation 3x² - x = 10 ⇒ 3x² - x - 10 = 0
- Step 2: Use factoring method (product and sum rule) to find factors and zeros. So the equation can be written as below.
⇒ 3x² - 6x + 5x - 10 = 0
⇒ 3x(x - 2) + 5(x - 2) = 0
⇒ (3x + 5)(x - 2) = 0 These are the factors of the equation.
- Step 3: Find zeros by equating the factors to 0.
⇒ 3x + 5 = 0 and x - 2 = 0
⇒ x = -5/3 and 2
