You can put this solution on YOUR website!
I'm assuming you want to factor \"2x%5E2-14x%2B3x-21\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"2x%5E2-14x%2B3x-21\" Start with the given expression\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%282x%5E2-14x%29%2B%283x-21%29\" Group like terms\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"2x%28x-7%29%2B3%28x-7%29\" Factor out the GCF \"2x\" out of the first group. Factor out the GCF \"3\" out of the second group\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%282x%2B3%29%28x-7%29\" Since we have the common term \"x-7\", we can combine like terms\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So \"2x%5E2-14x%2B3x-21\" factors to \"%282x%2B3%29%28x-7%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
