Let's add all the values on one side and make it equal to the sum of all the other values on the other side

(- X) + (- X) + (- X) + (- X) + (- X) + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = X + X + X + (- 1) + (- 1) + (- 1) + (- 1) + (- 1) + (- 1) + (- 1) + (- 1)

- 5X + 12 = 3X - 8

- 5X - 3X = - 8 - 12

- 8X = - 20 x(- 1)

8X = 20

X = 20/8

Answer:

$2x^2(6x - 1) + 3(6x - 1)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$12x^3 - 2x^2 + 18x - 3$

Required

Factorize

To start with; we need to group the expression into two

$(12x^3 - 2x^2) + (18x - 3)$

Factorize each grouped expression, using their common factor

$2x^2(6x - 1) + 3(6x - 1)$

From the list of given options;

Option A is correct
