To factor the polynomial x³ + 7x² - 2x - 14, we can use various factoring methods to simplify the expression. In this case, we'll use the grouping method:

Step 1: Group the terms:
(x³ + 7x²) + (-2x - 14)

Step 2: Factor out the common factor from each group:
In the first group, we can factor out x²: x²(x + 7).
In the second group, we...
