Solution - Simplification or other simple results

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  (2x2 +  28x) +  20

Step  2  :

Step  3  :

Pulling out like terms :

 3.1     Pull out like factors :

   2x² + 28x + 20  =   2 • (x² + 14x + 10) 

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

 3.2     Factoring  x² + 14x + 10 

The first term is,  x²  its coefficient is  1 .
The middle term is,  +14x  its coefficient is  14 .
The last term, "the constant", is  +10 

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   1 • 10 = 10 

Step-2 : Find two factors of  10  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   14 .

Observation : No two such factors can be found !!
Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored

Final result :

  2 • (x2 + 14x + 10)
