**Question 1: Solve the factored quadratic equation (19x−3)(9+x)=0**

To solve the equation, we can set each factor equal to zero:

1. \(19x - 3 = 0\)
- \(19x = 3\)
- \(x = \frac{3}{19}\)

2. \(9 + x = 0\)
- \(x = -9\)

Thus, the solution set is:
\[
\{ -9, \frac{3}{19} \}
\]

**Question 2: Which of the following quadratic equations is not solvable by grouping?**

We can analyze how to factor each equation:

1. \(2x^2 - 2x - 10 = 0\)
- Can be factored as \(2(x^2 - x - 5) = 0\).

2. \(x^2 - 12x + 35 = 0\)
- Can be factored as \((x - 5)(x - 7) = 0\).

3. \(2x^2 + 14x + 12 = 0\)
- Can be factored as \(2(x^2 + 7x + 6) = 0\) and further as \(2(x + 6)(x + 1) = 0\).

4. \(x^2 - 2x + 1 = 0\)
- Can be factored as \((x - 1)(x - 1) = 0\) or \((x - 1)^2 = 0\).

The equation that is **not solvable by grouping** is:
\[
2x^2 - 2x - 10 = 0
\]
as it requires a different factoring approach.

**Question 3: Factor the expression \(49x^4 - 4y^6\)**

This expression is a difference of squares, which can be factored using the formula \(a^2 - b^2 = (a - b)(a + b)\).

1. \(a^2 = (7x^2)^2\) and \(b^2 = (2y^3)^2\)

Thus, we can rewrite it as:
\[
49x^4 - 4y^6 = (7x^2 - 2y^3)(7x^2 + 2y^3)
\]

So the factored expression is:
\[
(7x^2 - 2y^3)(7x^2 + 2y^3)
\]

To fill in the blank spaces:
1. First blank: \(x^2\)
2. Second blank: \(y^3\)

Final factorization:
\[
(7 \, x^2 - 2y^3)(7 \, x^2 + 2y^3)
\]
