You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Factor by grouping
\n" ); document.write( "can you see the first two have a factor of 5 and the second two have a factor of 12?
\n" ); document.write( "5*(x^2+xy)-12(x+y)
\n" ); document.write( "wait you can factor out an x from the first group
\n" ); document.write( "5x*(x+y)-12(x+y)
\n" ); document.write( "I see a factor of x+y
\n" ); document.write( "(5x-12)*(x+y)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
