Answer

$(7x+5)(2x+3)$.

Work Step by Step

The given polynomial is $=14x^2+31x+15$ Rewrite $31x$ as $10x+21x$. $=14x^2+10x+21x+15$ Group the terms. $=(14x^2+10x)+(21x+15)$ Factor each group. $=2x(7x+5)+3(7x+5)$ Factor out $(7x+5)$. $=(7x+5)(2x+3)$ Hence, the factor of the polynomial is $(7x+5)(2x+3)$.
