factor x^2-x-12

factor

x^{2} - x - 12

(x + 3) (x - 4)

Solution steps

x^{2} - x - 12

Break the expression into groups

= (x^{2} + 3 x) + (- 4 x - 12)

Factor out

x

from

x^{2} + 3 x : x (x + 3)

Factor out

- 4

from

- 4 x - 12 : - 4 (x + 3)

= x (x + 3) - 4 (x + 3)

Factor out common term

x + 3

= (x + 3) (x - 4)

\frac{9 ^{- 2}}{9 ^{- 4}}

- \frac{1}{\frac{1}{3}}

∣ x ∣ > 12

w - \frac{5}{8} = - \frac{1}{2}

3 y = - 41
