Step 1 :
After factoring out $ p $ we have:
$$ 5p^{3}+33p^{2}-14p = p ( 5p^{2}+33p-14 ) $$Step 2 :
Step 2: Identify constants $ a $ , $ b $ and $ c $.
$ a $ is a number in front of the $ x^2 $ term $ b $ is a number in front of the $ x $ term and $ c $ is a constant. In this case:
Step 3: Multiply the leading coefficient $\color{blue}{ a = 5 }$ by the constant term $\color{blue}{c = -14} $.
$$ a \cdot c = -70 $$Step 4: Find out two numbers that multiply to $ a \cdot c = -70 $ and add to $ b = 33 $.
Step 5: All pairs of numbers with a product of $ -70 $ are:
PRODUCT = -70 | |
-1 70 | 1 -70 |
-2 35 | 2 -35 |
-5 14 | 5 -14 |
-7 10 | 7 -10 |
Step 6: Find out which factor pair sums up to $\color{blue}{ b = 33 }$
PRODUCT = -70 and SUM = 33 | |
-1 70 | 1 -70 |
-2 35 | 2 -35 |
-5 14 | 5 -14 |
-7 10 | 7 -10 |
Step 7: Replace middle term $ 33 x $ with $ 35x-2x $:
$$ 5x^{2}+33x-14 = 5x^{2}+35x-2x-14 $$Step 8: Apply factoring by grouping. Factor $ 5x $ out of the first two terms and $ -2 $ out of the last two terms.
$$ 5x^{2}+35x-2x-14 = 5x\left(x+7\right) -2\left(x+7\right) = \left(5x-2\right) \left(x+7\right) $$
