Given the equation:

10t^2 - 29t = 10

Determine the correct factored form of the equation.

Solution:

In order to factor the equation, we simply needed to take the lowest degree term of t, in our case, we'll have to factor out t from the equation.

10t^2 - 29t = 10

t(10t - 29) = -10

Final answer:

a. t(10t - 29) = -10
