First let's divide by 5 to see if it looks familiar.
From the FOIL (First, Outer, Inner, Last) method, we know,
In our case,
a + b =1
a*b=-6
The factors of 6 that are likely possible values are 2 and 3, let's get the signs right. Since a*b is negative, either a or b is negative. Since the sum is positive, the smaller one must be the negative one: a=3, b=-2.
To get back to your original equation we have to multiply by 5.
