6x²+x-12

the first thing we need to do is find 2 numbers that add up to equal the middle term (1) but multiply together to get a product of -72 (-12*6)

two numbers that would fit this is 9 and -8
so now we placed 9x and -8x in place of the middle term

6x²+9x-8x-12

now we look for whats common between the first two numbers and divide them out

6x²+9x = 3x(2x+3)

now we do the same with the last two numbers

-8x-12 = -4(2x+3)

notice how the numbers in brackets are the same (2x+3)
we will keep (2x+3) and then combine the numbers on the outside

once we do that you should get an answer of 

(3x-4)(2x+3)

hope this helped!

Answer:

The friend caught the ball at 2 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. False; the ball was not still in the air at 1 second the x-component of the vertex is 0.5.

2. False; the x-component of the vertex is 0.5

3. True; the ball was tossed at a height of 2 feet (when x=0, y=2), it is safe to assume the ball was caught at the same height.

4. False; when x = 0, y = 2.
