What are the factors of the trinomial? Check all that apply
For this case, the first thing we should do is write the trinomial.
To do this, we add similar terms.
We have then:
[tex]x ^ 2 + 2x - 7x - 7 - 7[/tex]
Then, rewriting the trinomial we have:
[tex]x ^ 2 + 2x - 7x - 14[/tex]
Then, the trinomial is given by:
[tex]x ^ 2 - 5x - 14[/tex]
Factoring we have:
[tex]x (x + 2) -7 (x + 2)[/tex]
Rewriting we have:
[tex](x + 2) (x-7)[/tex]
Answer:
The trinomial factors are given by:
[tex](x + 2)\\(x-7)[/tex]
