For this case we have a factorized quadratic equation. We equal each factor to zero and thus find the roots:

[tex]x + 5 = 0[/tex]

Subtracting 5 from both sides we have:

[tex]x = -5[/tex]

Thus, the first solution of the equation is:

[tex]x_ {1} = - 5[/tex]

On the other hand we have:

[tex]x-3 = 0[/tex]

Adding 3 to both sides:

[tex]x = 3[/tex]

Thus, the second solution of the equation is:

[tex]x_ {2} = 3[/tex]

Answer:

The solutions of the equation are:

[tex]x_ {1} = - 5\\x_ {2} = 3[/tex]
