SOLUTION: can somebody check this? I've fixed it once but my instructor says it is still wrong.
Factor Completely. If a polynomial is prime, state this.
-2a^2(35a^2 + 34a - 8)

Question 601647: can somebody check this? I've fixed it once but my instructor says it is still wrong.
Factor Completely. If a polynomial is prime, state this.
-2a^2(35a^2 + 34a - 8)
-2a^2(35a + 14a + 20a - 8)
-2a^2(7a(5a -2) + 4(5a -2))
-2a^2(5a - 2)(7a +4)
He says that the signs are wrong and the factorization is as well? Answer by veronica1289(7) (Show Source):
