Answer:

- 5, 3

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] {x}^{2} + 2x - 15 \\ = {x}^{2} + 5x - 3x - 15 \\ =x(x + 5) - 3(x + 5)\\ = (x + 5)(x - 3) \\ Let \: (x + 5)(x - 3) = 0 \\ x + 5 = 0 \: \: or \: \: x - 3 = 0 \\ x = - 5 \: \: or \: \: x = 3 \\ [/tex]

Hence, the left and right most x intercepts are--5 and 3 respectively.
