Homework Help: help...solving a polynomial....algebra

Posted by Taylor on Thursday, January 18, 2007 at 10:16pm.

solve this please....help me....12x(squared)+7x-10

Do you wish to factor this trinomial?

If so, the factors are:

(4x + 5)(3x - 2)

You can use the FOIL method to check.

If this is supposed to be an equation:

12x^2 + 7x - 10 = 0

...then set each factor equal to 0:

4x + 5 = 0
3x - 2 = 0

Solve each for x. You will have two possible solutions.

I hope this will help and is what you were asking.
