$\"12%28c-r%29%5E2%2B+5r+-+2+-5c=12%28c-r%29%5E2-5%28c-r%29-2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "To make it easier to see the factoring, let's make $\"x=c-r\"$ ,
\n" ); document.write( "to get
\n" ); document.write( " $\"12x%5E2-5c-2=12c-8x%2B3x-2=4x%283x-2%29%2B%283x-2%29=%284x%2B1%29%283x-2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Now we can go back to $\"c\"$ and $\"r\"$ ;
\n" ); document.write( " $\"12%28c-r%29%5E2%2B+5r+-+2+-5c=%284c-4r%2B1%29%283c-3r-2%29\"$ \n" ); document.write( "
