Factorise: 2x2 + Xy - 6y2

factorise: 2x² + xy - 6y²

Sum

2x² + xy - 6y²

= 2x² + 4xy - 3xy - 6y²

= 2x (x + 2y) - 3y(x + 2y)

= (x + 2y)(2x - 3y)

Factorise by the grouping method : ab - 2b + a² - 2a

Factorise using the grouping method :
m (x - 3y)² + n (3y - x) + 5x - 15y

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

Factorise : ab(c² + d²) - a²cd - b²cd

factorise: 5 + 7x - 6x²

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