2x^(2) - 5x - 12
First write down all the factors of '2' & '12'
2 = 1,2
12 = 1,12; 2,6; 3,4 .
From this we select two pairs of numbers, one pair from each coefficient, that add/multiply to '5'
They are, 1,2 & 3,4
Hence
-(2 x 4) + (1 x 3) = -8 + 3 = -5
Set up the brackets
(2x 3)(x 4)
Hence the signs are
( 2x + 3)(x - 4)
