We notice that it must be a product of 2 different thingummies
so we have
(x + / - y) (x + - / y)
we need to determine the spaces ad signs
we know that the signs are different since the end result is negative
so fidn the first one
7
factor
7=1 times 7
so we have
(1x + / - y) (7x + / - y)
factor end
-20=-1 and 20 or - 2 and 10 or - 4 and 5
we want the middle term to be positive so the bigger term must be positive
try the ones closest first
(x-4y) (7x+5y)
multiply out the middles and outers
5xy-28xy is not 68xy
try - 2 and 10
(x+10y) (7x-2y)
multily middles and outers
-2xy and 70xy=68xy
correct
answer is (x+10y) (7x-2y)

Factoring this down, would leave you with two happy expressions in parantheses. (x+10y) (7x-2y).
(AKA Factor out an x and a y to be able to simplify even more.)
