Help me plspslsplpsl 42x^2+34-8-12

Answer 1

`\bf Step-by-step~explanation:`

`\bf Step~1:`

To solve this, we have to simplify these numbers by adding like terms.

`42x^2+34-8-12\\\\(34-8=26, 26-12=14)\\\\42x^2+14\\`

`\bf Step~2:`

Next, we factor our expression. To do so, we look for the greatest common factor of 42 and 14, which is 14. We know that because 42 divided by 14 is 3.

`(42)/(14) =3`

`\boxed{ \bf Our~final~answer: 14(3x^2 + 1)}`
