The solution

You have entered [src]
(-5*x - 3)*(2*x - 1) = 0
$$\left(- 5 x - 3\right) \left(2 x - 1\right) = 0$$
Detail solution
Expand the expression in the equation
$$\left(- 5 x - 3\right) \left(2 x - 1\right) = 0$$
We get the quadratic equation
$$- 10 x^{2} - x + 3 = 0$$
This equation is of the form
a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0

A quadratic equation can be solved
using the discriminant.
The roots of the quadratic equation:
$$x_{1} = \frac{\sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
$$x_{2} = \frac{- \sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
where D = b^2 - 4*a*c - it is the discriminant.
Because
$$a = -10$$
$$b = -1$$
$$c = 3$$
, then
D = b^2 - 4 * a * c = 

(-1)^2 - 4 * (-10) * (3) = 121

Because D > 0, then the equation has two roots.
x1 = (-b + sqrt(D)) / (2*a)

x2 = (-b - sqrt(D)) / (2*a)

or
$$x_{1} = - \frac{3}{5}$$
$$x_{2} = \frac{1}{2}$$

Rapid solution [src]
x1 = -3/5
$$x_{1} = - \frac{3}{5}$$
x2 = 1/2
$$x_{2} = \frac{1}{2}$$
x2 = 1/2
