Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]x^2+13x-30[/tex]

Find two numbers that multiply to -30 and add up to 13

In this case those two numbers are 15 and -2

[tex]15*-2=-30[/tex]

[tex]15+(-2)=13[/tex]

Now that these two numbers are found set them both in their own parenthesis plus x

[tex](x+15)(x+(-2))[/tex]

Simplify the signs

[tex](x+15)(x-2)[/tex]

Your answer is

[tex](x+15)(x-2)[/tex]
