Answer:


(x+7)(4x^2+7)

Explanation:

The given expression is
4x^3+28x^2+7x+49

We can factor it by grouping method.

So, group the terms as shown below


(4x^3+28x^2)+(7x+49)

Take GCF from each group


4x^2(x+7)+7(x+7)

Factored out the common term (x+7)


(x+7)(4x^2+7)

Thus, the factored form is
(x+7)(4x^2+7)
