Accepted Solution

A:
One of the factors of the given quadratic expression is (x+2).The given quadratic expression is:[tex]6x^{2} +7x-10[/tex]What is a quadratic expression?Any expression of the form [tex]ax^{2} +bx+c[/tex] is called a quadratic expression where a≠0.Splitting the middle term of the given expression[tex]6x^{2} +12x-5x-10[/tex][tex]6x(x+2)-5(x+2)[/tex][tex](x+2)(6x-5)[/tex]Hence, one of the factors of the given quadratic expression is (x+2).To get more about quadratic equations visit:
