Question

solve for:
17x^2+46x-43

Answer 1

17x2+46x-43 

Final result :

17x2 + 46x - 43

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

 (1): "x2"   was replaced by   "x^2". 

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

(17x2 + 46x) - 43

Step  2  :

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

 2.1     Factoring  17x2+46x-43 

The first term is,  17x2  its coefficient is  17 .
The middle term is,  +46x  its coefficient is  46 .
The last term, "the constant", is  -43 

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   17 • -43 = -731 

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -731  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   46 .

     -731   +   1   =   -730     -43   +   17   =   -26     -17   +   43   =   26     -1   +   731   =   730


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

Final result :

17x2 + 46x - 43
