Answer:

2a-3 and a+4

Explanation:

Given the equation

2a²+8a -15 = 3a - 3

We are to find one of its factors

Equate the expression to zero

2a²+8a -15 = 3a - 3

2a²+8a -15 - 3a + 3 = 0

Collect the like terms

2a²+8a - 3a - 15 + 3= 0

2a²+5a - 12= 0

Factorize

2a²+8a-3a - 12= 0

2a(a+4)-3(a+4) = 0

(2a-3)(a+4) = 0

Hence the factors are 2a-3 and a+4
