To factor the quadratic expression \( 21x^2 + 55x + 14 \), we can use factoring by grouping by recognizing patterns and trying possible pairs of factors. Let's step through this process systematically.
1. **Identify coefficients from the quadratic expression \( ax^2 + bx + c \):**
- \( a = 21 \)
- \( b = 55 \)
- \( c = 14 \)
2. **Factor the product of \( a \) and \( c \):**
- \( a \times c = 21 \times 14 = 294 \)
3. **Find two numbers that multiply to 294 and add up to \( b = 55 \):**
- After testing possible pairs, we find that \( 42 \times 7 = 294 \) and \( 42 + 7 = 49 \), but this sum is incorrect since it does not equal 55.
- Checking again for correct pairs, we find \( 35 \times 7 = 245 \). We instead need a pair that fits our criteria more closely such as subsequent check \( 21 \times 14 still as viable=294 correct product leading us next to split toward accurate check forward below grouping.
Thus, correctly checking as factors: \( (3x+2) ( 7x +?) ready).
Let us consider:
4. **Splitting the middle term \( 55x \) correctly:**
