The trinomial expression is .

The trinomial compare to general trinomial expression: , So x = a, b = 27, c = 72.

To find two numbers with a sum of 27 and a product of 72.

This trinomial list of the factors of 72, and look for the pair of factors is a sum of 27.

The correct factors are 3 and 24.

To factor trinomials of the form , find two integers, m and n, with a sum equal to b and a product equal to c.

Then write  as (x + m)(x + n).

Check:

To check the solution by multiply the two factors.

       (Using FOIL method)

Combine like terms using distributive property: ac + bc = (a + b)c.

The solution is "true".

The solution is .
