X2-13x+30

Answer 1

`\ \boxed{(x - 3)(x - 10)}`

Explanation:

`{x}^(2) - 13x + 30`

Write -13x as a difference

`{x}^(2) - 3x - 10x + 30`

Factor out x from the expression

`x(x - 3) - 10x + 30`

Factor out -10 from the expression

`x(x - 3) - 10(x - 3)`

Factor out x-3 from the expression

`(x - 3)(x - 10)`
