Factorise by the grouping method : a³ + a - 3a² - 3

Factorise using the grouping method :
x (6x - 5y) - 4 (6x - 5y)²

factorise: 1 − (2x + 3y) − 6(2x + 3y)²

factorise: a² - 23a + 42

factorise: 5x² - 4xy - 12y²

Factorise the following by grouping the terms:
15x² + 7y - 3x - 35xy

Factorise the following by grouping the terms:
2m³ - 5n² - 5m²n + 2mn

Factorise the following by grouping the terms:
9x³ + 6x²y² - 4y³ - 6xy

Factorise the following by grouping the terms:
xy(a² + 1) + a(x² + y²)

Factorise the following by grouping the terms:
x² - (p + q)x + pq
