$(x + 5) (x - 3)$ $(x+5)(x-3)$

You want to get an equation $x^{2} + 2 x - 15$ $x^2 + 2x -15$

The sum of numbers 2 and multiplication of numbers -15

(such as +5 and -2):

$(x + 5) (x - 3)$ $(x+5)(x-3)$

$= x^{2} + 5 x - 3 x - 15$ $=x^2 + 5x -3x -15$

$= x^{2} + 2 x - 15$ $=x^2 +2x -15$

Your answer is $(x + 5) (x - 3)$ $(x+5)(x-3)$
