Answer:

m = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. put -24 into the equation so : [tex]x^{2} +5x -24[/tex]
  2. find two numbers that :   times to make -24, and add to make 5
  3. those two numbers are 8 and -3    (since 8-3=5 and 8*-3=-24)
  4. put those into double brackets:  (x-3)(x+8)
  5. (x-3)(x+8) = (x-3)(x+m)
  6. +8 goes into where m is
  7. m = 8
