SOLUTION: Write a quadratic equation in the form ax^2+bx+c=o, having the roots -2 and 5.
I set each root to 0, coming up with (x+2)(x-5). I then foiled them coming up with x^2-3x-10=0. Corr

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Good Job!
You may also realize that there are infinite answers. is the simplest one, and simple is beautiful,
but also works.
If you multiply both sides of the equal sign times a number other than 1, you get another equation with the same solutions.
