Solution - Simplification or other simple results
-3x^2+7x+9
Step by Step Solution
Step 1 :
Equation at the end of step 1 :
(7x - 3x2) + 9
Step 2 :
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
2.1 Factoring -3x2+7x+9
The first term is, -3x2 its coefficient is -3 .
The middle term is, +7x its coefficient is 7 .
The last term, "the constant", is +9
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant -3 • 9 = -27
Step-2 : Find two factors of -27 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is 7 .
| -27 | + | 1 | = | -26 | ||
| -9 | + | 3 | = | -6 | ||
| -3 | + | 9 | = | 6 | ||
| -1 | + | 27 | = | 26 |
Observation : No two such factors can be found !!
Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored
Final result :
-3x2 + 7x + 9
