Step by Step Solution
Step 1 :
Equation at the end of step 1 :
(3t2 + 30t) + 63
Step 2 :
Step 3 :
Pulling out like terms :
3.1 Pull out like factors :
3t2 + 30t + 63 = 3 • (t2 + 10t + 21)
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
3.2 Factoring t2 + 10t + 21
The first term is, t2 its coefficient is 1 .
The middle term is, +10t its coefficient is 10 .
The last term, "the constant", is +21
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • 21 = 21
Step-2 : Find two factors of 21 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is 10 .
-21 | + | -1 | = | -22 | ||
-7 | + | -3 | = | -10 | ||
-3 | + | -7 | = | -10 | ||
-1 | + | -21 | = | -22 | ||
1 | + | 21 | = | 22 | ||
3 | + | 7 | = | 10 | That's it |
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, 3 and 7
t2 + 3t + 7t + 21
Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
t • (t+3)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
7 • (t+3)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(t+7) • (t+3)
Which is the desired factorization
Final result :
3 • (t + 7) • (t + 3)
