Follow the same steps I just showed you in your previous post dealing with the same kind of question.
Let me know what you get
I solved the problem but just to make sure can you checking its correct or not.

The trinomial I had to solve for was
3x^2+5x-2
The method I used was Slide and divide and I got (x-2)(3x+1)

Can anyone please check if I did it correctly or not?
You could have checked by just expanding your answer.

(x-2)(3x+1)
= x^2 + x - 6x - 2
= x^2 - 5x - 2

Notice how it differs from the original?
How do you think you should adjust your answer?
