Factors are (6x-5) and (7x+1).

Given:

The quadratic equation is


42x^2=29x+5

The objective is to factor the equation.

The quadratic equation can be written as,


\begin{gathered} 42x^2=29x+5 \\ 42x^2-29x-5=0 \end{gathered}

On factorizing the above equation,


\begin{gathered} 42x^2+6x-35x-5=0 \\ 6x(7x+1)-5(7x+1)=0 \\ (6x-5)(7x+1)=0 \end{gathered}

Hence, the factors are (6x-5)(7x+1)=0.
