Answer:

x=8

x=-6

Explanation:

As We Have -x^2+2x +48=0

By Using Ist And Last Method (factorization Method)

=> -x^2+8x-6x+48=0

Taking x and +6 common

=>x(-x+8)+6(-x+8)=0

Taking -x+8 common

=> -x+8=0 and x+6=0

=>-x+8=0 =>-x+8-8=0-8 (subtracting 8 on both side) => x=8

and

x+6=0 =>x+6-6=0-6 (subtracting 6 on both side) => x=-6
