fatoring by grouping 35s^2-39s-14

hero (hero):

35s^2-39s-14 35s^2 + 10s - 49s - 14 5s(7s + 2)-7(7s + 2) (7s+2)(5s-7)

hero (hero):

I posted that on the other one you posted.

hero (hero):

You just didn't see it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

where do i start first and finding the answer

hero (hero):

You have to find "d"

hero (hero):

a = 35 b = -39 c = -14 d = ? (Yes, there is a "d")

OpenStudy (anonymous):

where are you getting a b c d from

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

from English Alphabets.

hero (hero):

Hmm, if you don't know what a, b, and c are, I don't think I can help you

hero (hero):

The coefficients of the terms

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im talking about in the problem,

hero (hero):

Do you know what "coefficients" are?

hero (hero):

ax^2 + bx + c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no i dont sorry

hero (hero):

I just posted it above

hero (hero):

35s^2-39s-14 corresponds to ax^2 + bx + c

hero (hero):

35 = a, -39 = b, -14 = c

hero (hero):

Does that make any sense or no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do i do that in the proiblem

hero (hero):

Once again, I factored it the hard way

hero (hero):

I give up. It will take too long to explain

OpenStudy (anonymous):
