Answer: x2 + 34x - 13
Step-by-step explanation:
STEP
1
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
1.1 Factoring x2+34x-13
The first term is, x2 its coefficient is 1 .
The middle term is, +34x its coefficient is 34 .
The last term, "the constant", is -13
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • -13 = -13
Step-2 : Find two factors of -13 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is 34 .
-13 + 1 = -12
-1 + 13 = 12
Observation : No two such factors can be found !!
Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored
Final result :
x2 + 34x - 13
