x^2 + 3 - 40=0
(x+8)(x-5)=0
x=-8 answer
x-5=0
x=5 answer.
-------------------------------
x^2 = 10x - 24
x^2-10x+24=0
(x-6)(x-4)=0
x-6=0
x=6 answer.
x-4=0
x=4 answer.
--------------------------------
p^2 +15p + 25 = 6p + 5
p^2+15p-6p+25-5=0
p^2+9p+20=0
(p+4)(p+5)=0
p+4=0
p=-4 answer.
p+5=0
p=-5 answer.
