30x^{2}+100x-280000=0
Quadratic polynomial can be factored using the transformation ax^{2}+bx+c=a\left(x-x_{1}\right)\left(x-x_{2}\right), where x_{1} and x_{2} are the solutions of the quadratic equation ax^{2}+bx+c=0.
x=\frac{-100±\sqrt{100^{2}-4\times 30\left(-280000\right)}}{2\times 30}
All equations of the form ax^{2}+bx+c=0 can be solved using the quadratic formula: \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}. The quadratic formula gives two solutions, one when ± is addition and one when it is subtraction.
x=\frac{-100±\sqrt{10000-4\times 30\left(-280000\right)}}{2\times 30}
Square 100.
x=\frac{-100±\sqrt{10000-120\left(-280000\right)}}{2\times 30}
Multiply -4 times 30.
x=\frac{-100±\sqrt{10000+33600000}}{2\times 30}
Multiply -120 times -280000.
x=\frac{-100±\sqrt{33610000}}{2\times 30}
Add 10000 to 33600000.
x=\frac{-100±100\sqrt{3361}}{2\times 30}
Take the square root of 33610000.
x=\frac{-100±100\sqrt{3361}}{60}
Multiply 2 times 30.
x=\frac{100\sqrt{3361}-100}{60}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{-100±100\sqrt{3361}}{60} when ± is plus. Add -100 to 100\sqrt{3361}.
x=\frac{5\sqrt{3361}-5}{3}
Divide -100+100\sqrt{3361} by 60.
x=\frac{-100\sqrt{3361}-100}{60}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{-100±100\sqrt{3361}}{60} when ± is minus. Subtract 100\sqrt{3361} from -100.
x=\frac{-5\sqrt{3361}-5}{3}
Divide -100-100\sqrt{3361} by 60.
30x^{2}+100x-280000=30\left(x-\frac{5\sqrt{3361}-5}{3}\right)\left(x-\frac{-5\sqrt{3361}-5}{3}\right)
Factor the original expression using ax^{2}+bx+c=a\left(x-x_{1}\right)\left(x-x_{2}\right). Substitute \frac{-5+5\sqrt{3361}}{3} for x_{1} and \frac{-5-5\sqrt{3361}}{3} for x_{2}.
