Answer 2

is it b?

Answer 3

The mathematical equation of 3a^2 +a?14 solved for factoring results in the factors of (-7 + -3a)(2 + -1a).

Answer 4

close but not quite 3a^2 + a − 14
^ ^
so should add to 1 and multiply to -14
(3a − 7)(a + 2)
^ ^ ^ -7*2= -14 but -7+(2)(3) does not equal 1

Answer 5

so, it should be a?

Answer 6

yes :)
