Which is the correct factorisation of (2x^2+7x+3)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (2x+1)(x+3)

The direct answer is A: \((2x+1)(x+3)\). Multiply the proposed factors: \((2x+1)(x+3)=2x^2+6x+x+3=2x^2+7x+3\), so it matches exactly. A systematic method is to multiply the leading and constant coefficients, 2 times 3=6, and find two numbers with product 6 and sum 7: 6 and 1. Split the middle term as 6x+x, then group: \(2x^2+6x+x+3=2x(x+3)+1(x+3)=(2x+1)(x+3)\). B expands to \(2x^2+5x+3\), so its middle coefficient is wrong. C expands to \(2x^2+7x+6\), so its constant term is wrong. D expands to \(2x^2-7x+3\), so the middle sign is wrong. A useful habit is to expand every proposed pair; this catches both coefficient and sign errors quickly.
