Question 142883
Factor:
{{{6x^2+x-2}}}
Try this: Multiply the coefficient of x^2 (6) by the constant term (-2) to get -12.
Now what are the factors of -12 that add up to coefficient of x (1)?
How about (4)*(-3) = -12 and (4)+(-3) = 1.
Next, rewrite the equation as:
{{{6x^2+4x-3x -2}}} Factor this by grouping.
{{{(6x^2+4x)-(3x+2)}}} Factor.
{{{2x(3x+2)-(3x+2)}}} Factor out the (3x+2)
{{{(3x+2)(2x-1)}}} and there you have it!
