Question

-70y^2+90x^3+100yx^2-63xyfactor by grouping

Answer 1

The idea of grouping is to get the terms in groups that allow you to factor out from each group something that becomes a factor in itself, leaving two factors behind that are alike. Like this: rearrange those terms so they are in this order:
(-70y^2 - 63xy) + (90x^3 + 100yx^2).  Now out of the first set we are going to factor out a -7y, and out of the second set we are going to factor out a 10x^2. When we do this, this is what we get: -7y(10y + 9x) + 10x^2(9x + 10y). As you can see, what's inside both sets of parenthesis is the same, just in a different order. We can factor that out now, leaving (9x + 10y)(10x^2 - 7y). And that is factored by grouping.
