Full solution

Q. This is due the first lesson in\newline11. Factorise 6x213x15 6 x^{2}-13 x-15
  1. Find Numbers: First, we need to find two numbers that multiply to give the product of the coefficient of x2x^2 term (6)(6) and the constant term (15)(-15), which is 90-90, and add up to the coefficient of the xx term (13)(-13).
  2. Trial and Error: Looking for two numbers that multiply to 90-90 and add up to 13-13, we can try different pairs of factors of 9090. After some trial and error, we find that 15-15 and 66 work because 15×6=90-15 \times 6 = -90 and 15+6=9-15 + 6 = -9, oops, we need 13-13, not 9-9, let's try again.
