    So the factors are (y + 1) (y + 4/3)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given in the question an equation

    3y² + 7y + 4

    To find it's factor we will use quadratic formula

    y = - b ± √ (b²-4 (a) (c)) / 2a

    here a = 3

    b = 7

    c = 4

    y1 = - 7 + √ (7² - 4 (3) (4)) / 2 (3)

    = - 7 + √49 - 48 / 6

    = - 7 + 1 / 6

    = - 6/6

    = - 1

    y2 = - 7 - √ (7² - 4 (3) (4)) / 2 (3)

    = - 7 - √49 - 48 / 6

    = - 7 - 1 / 6

    = - 8/6

    = - 4/3

    So the factors are (y + 1) and (y + 4/3)

    (3y + 4) (y + 1)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    3y^2 + 7y + 4

    a = 3, b = 7 and c = 4

    ac = 3 x 4 = 12

    The products of 12 = 3 and 4 and sum of 3 and 4 = 7

    So

    3y^2 + 7y + 4

    = 3y^2 + 3y + 4y + 4

    = 3y (y + 1) + 4 (y + 1)

    = (3y + 4) (y + 1)

    Answer

    (3y + 4) (y + 1)
