Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The polynomial is factored with help of guess-and-check strategy.
Formula used:
To factor a polynomial split the middle term in such a way that sum of two numbers is the middle term and product of two numbers is same is product of first and last term.
Calculation:
Consider the polynomial of the form
Recall that to factor a polynomial split the middle term in such a way that sum of two numbers is the middle term and product of two numbers is same is product of first and last term.
For the above polynomial
Apply it, first the group the similar terms,
Thus, the polynomial is factored as
