This is an irreducible quadratic.
The constant, by multiplying the first and last terms. In this equation, it is found like this:

9*-10=-90
Now, in order for it to be factored, two factors of
-90 must be equal to
-5.
Since there are no two factors of
-90 that equal
-5, this is an irreducible quadratic.
