Answer:

To factor a trinomial in the form x2 + bx + c, find two integers, r and s, whose product is c and whose sum is b. Rewrite the trinomial as x2 + rx + sx + c and then use grouping and the distributive property to factor the polynomial. The resulting factors will be (x + r) and (x + s).

Explanation:

1) Move the 94 over to the other side (combine like terms)

2) square root both sides

3) add a plus or minus sign in front of your answer

x = (plus or minus) 13
