Answer:


(x-5)(x-3)=0


x=5 \text{ and } x=3

Explanation:

Quadratic Equation given:


x^2-8x+15=0

In order to factor this equation think that we'll have something in the format:
(x-a)(x-b)

Once: -a -b = -c

and (-a)(-b)= d

Therefore, we have


(x-5)(x-3)=0


x-5=0\\\text{or}\\x-3=0


x=5 \text{ and } x=3
