Factor 5x
– 28x – 12.
 
Here, a = 5, b = –28 and c = –12.
 
ac = 5(–12) = –60
 
Find two factors of –60 whose sum is –28.
 
–30(2) = –60 and –30 + 2 = –28
 
Write –28x as –30x + 2x.
 
 
Factor 5x from the first two terms and 2 from the last two terms.
 
 
Factor x – 6 from the two terms.
 
 
Therefore,
