To solve the quadratic equation \( 84x^2 + 16x = 0 \) by factoring out the greatest common factor (GCF), let's start by identifying the GCF of the two terms:

1. The GCF of \( 84x^2 \) and \( 16x \) is \( 4x \).

Now, factor out \( 4x \):

\[
84x^2 + 16x = 4x(21x + 4) = 0
\]

Next, we can set each factor equal to zero:

1. \( 4x = 0 \) leads to:
\[
x = 0
\]

2. \( 21x + 4 = 0 \) leads to:
\[
21x = -4 \\
x = -\frac{4}{21}
\]

Thus, the solutions to the equation \( 84x^2 + 16x = 0 \) are:

\[
x = 0 \quad \text{and} \quad x = -\frac{4}{21}
\]

The correct response is:

**The solutions are \( x = 0 \) and \( x = -\frac{4}{21} \).**

I apologize for the misunderstanding. Based on your options, the correct choice is:

**The solutions are \( x = -\frac{4}{21} \) and \( x = 0 \).**

To determine which quadratic equation is not solvable by grouping, we can analyze each option to see if they can be factored into two binomials (which is typically how grouping works).

1. **\(x^2 - 12x + 35 = 0\)**
- This factors to \((x - 5)(x - 7) = 0\).

2. **\(2x^2 + 14x + 12 = 0\)**
- First factor out the GCF (2):
\[2(x^2 + 7x + 6) = 0\]
- Then factor the quadratic:
\[(x + 1)(x + 6) = 0\]
- Thus, this is also solvable by grouping.

3. **\(2x^2 - 2x - 10 = 0\)**
- First factor out the GCF (2):
\[2(x^2 - x - 5) = 0\]
- The quadratic \(x^2 - x - 5\) cannot be factored into nice integers, so we would typically use the quadratic formula instead.

4. **\(x^2 - 2x + 1 = 0\)**
- This factors to \((x - 1)(x - 1) = 0\) or \((x - 1)^2 = 0\).

From the above analysis, the quadratic equation that is **not solvable by grouping** is:

**\(2x^2 - 2x - 10 = 0\)**.
