Question

Find the Factor of 6x 2 - 17x + 5.

Answer 1

6x² -17x +5 = (6x² - 2x) - (15x + 5)    (factoring by grouping)

2x (3x -1) - 5(3x - 1)   


(2x -5) (3x - 1) is your final answer

hope this helps

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$6x^2-17x+5$

This can be written as

$6x^2-15x-2x+5$

Because -15-2=-17 and also (-15)(-2)=30

so now we have two pairs

$(6x^2-15x)+(-2x+5)$

Take out GCF from each pair

$3x(2x-5)-1(2x-5)$

since (2x-5) is now the common factor so final factored form

$(3x-1)(2x-5)$
