I am lost in my college algebra class right now. This semester just started and I have no clue how to factor. Can somebody please help me to understand this.
Example: 2x^2+x-3
Answer: (2x+3)(x-1)
I am absolutely lost on how they got this answer...However, I do know how to FOIL it to get back to the original problem. I just want to know how to do this step-by-step...Please help.
