Step-by-step explanation:
<em><u>To factor this trinomial, you must split the middle term (-12x) into two terms that can be added to get -12x, and multiplied to get 35:</u></em>
<em><u /></em> - 12x + 35
-7x - 5x + 35
<em><u>Group:</u></em>
( -7x) (-5x + 35)
<em><u>Take out the GCF (Greatest Common Factor):</u></em>
x(x - 7) -5(x - 7)
(x - 5) (x - 7)
