Evaluate
(x+3)(3x+10)
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
(x+3)(3x+10)=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
x+3=03x+10=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
x+3=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
x=0−3
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
x=−3
x=−33x+10=0
Solve the equation
More Steps

Evaluate
3x+10=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
3x=0−10
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
3x=−10
Divide both sides
33x=3−10
Divide the numbers
x=3−10
