2x^2 −mxy+3y^2 −5y−2=(ax+by+c)(ex+fy+g)  a,b,c,.... are integer.  expand right hand side:  aex^2 +bexy+cex            +afxy           +bfy^2 +cfy                          +agx             +bgy+cg  compare coefficients of all terms:  ae=2  be+af=−m  ce+ag=0   (coefficient of x term)  bf=3  cf+bg=−5  cg=−2    a=1,e=2 (or a=2,e=1)  2b+f=−m  2c+g=0 ⇒g=−2c  bf=3  cf+bg=−5  cg=−2 ⇒c(−2c)=−2 ⇒c^2 =1    with c=1:  g=−2  2b+f=−m ⇒m=−6−1=−7  f−2b=−5 ⇒f=2b−5 ⇒f=1 ∨ f=−6  bf=3 ⇒b(2b−5)−3=0 ⇒2b^2 −5b−3=0 ⇒(2b+1)(b−3)=0 ⇒b=3 ∨ b=−(1/2)    with c=−1:  g=2  2b+f=−m ⇒m=6+1=7  −f+2b=−5 ⇒f=2b+5 ⇒f=−1 ∨ f=6  bf=3 ⇒b(2b+5)−3=0 ⇒2b^2 +5b−3=0 ⇒(2b−1)(b+3)=0 ⇒b=−3 ∨ b=(1/2)    ⇒m=−7 or 7.  2x^2 +7xy+3y^2 −5y−2=(x+3y+1)(2x+y−2)  2x^2 −7xy+3y^2 −5y−2=(x−3y−1)(2x−y+2)
