Open in App
Solution

The given expression is 3x2+22x+35. (Coefficient of x2=3, coefficient of x=22 and constant term=35)We will split the coefficient of x into two parts such that their sum is 22 and their product equals the product of the coefficient of x2 and the constant term, i.e., 3×35=105.Now, 15+7=22 and 15×7=105Replacing the middle term 22x by 15x+7x, we get:3x2+22x+35=3x2+15x+7x+35 =(3x2+15x)+(7x+35) =3x(x+5)+7(x+5) =(3x+7)(x+5)
