This first problem will be solved by factoring the polynomial formula of ax^2+bx+c to get a*c(-30) and to add up to (-1) we have a=2‚b=-1‚and c=-15=0. The new equation is (2m^2-m-15) Original equation: 2m^2-m-15=0 Step 1. (2m^2-6m+5=15=0) To start we separate the fraction. Then solve both sides of the original equation separately Step 2. 2m(m-3)+5(m-3)=0
