Question

Factor by grouping : xy + 6y - 2x - 12 (if you don't know the answer don't comment)

Answer 1

Hey There today we will solve your problem

First we will factor out $y$ from $xy+6y$ which gives us $y(x+6)$

Next we will factor out $-2$ from $-2x-12$ which gives us $-2(x+6)$

This gives us the equation

$y(x+6)-2(x+6)$

then factor out the common term  $x+6$ and we get

$\left(x+6\right)\left(y-2\right)$
