Answer:

x= 2, x= -12

Explanation:

cuz i said so

first move the 24 to the other side of the equation by subtracting it from both side's

now the equation looks like this

x^2+10x-24

then find values that add to equal 10 and that also multiply to equal -24

this works out to (x-2) (x+12)

which means that x is equal to 2 and -12
