Answer:

The correct answer is 6x +7

Explanation:

It is given a polynomial 6x^2 + x − 7

Factorization of 6x^2 + x − 7

Using splitting method

6x^2 + x − 7 = 6x^2 - 6x + 7x − 7

= 6x(x - 1) + 7 (x - 1) (take 6x and 7 as common)

= (x - 1)(6x +7)

Therefore the factors of 6x^2 + x − 7 are (x - 1) and (6x + 7)

Therefore the correct answer is (6x + 7)
