Question 733807: Im having problem with my Factoring (x^2+bc+c)<-example
I got it down pat untill i come to something like r^2+3r-10 (r^2 is R squared)
what always gets me is negatives i half to solve it in a way such as (r+3)(r+-6)We are factoring Trinomials and i just cant find awnsers to Problems with a negative
Hope you can help

r^2+3r-10
----
The AC Method:
A*C: 2*-5 = -10
B :: 2+-5 = 3
------
Use reverse FOIL to get:
r^2 + (2r-5r) -10
----
Factor each pair as follows:
(r^2+2r) + (-5r-10)
======
r(r+2)-5(r+2)
---
= (r+2)(r-5)
