    Step-by-step explanation:

    given

    7x² + 14x - 56 ← factor out 7 from each term

    = 7 (x² + 2x - 8)

    To factor the quadratic inside the parenthesis

    Consider the factors of the constant term ( - 8) which sum to give the coefficient of the x - term ( + 2)

    The factors are + 4 and - 2

    since + 4 * - 2 = - 8 and + 4 - 2 = + 2

    x² + 2x - 8) = (x + 4) (x - 2), and

    7x² + 14x - 56 = 7 (x + 4) (x - 2)

    The 3 factors are B, G and J
