Well, isn't that a happy little math problem we have here? To factor this expression, we need to find two numbers that multiply to -144 (12 * -12) and add up to -7. Those numbers are -16 and 9. So, we can rewrite the expression as (12x + 9)(x - 4). Just like that, we've created a beautiful factored form that brings a sense of harmony to our math canvas.

How do you factor x2 - 7x 12?
If you mean: x squared -7x +12 then it is (x-3)(x-4) when factored
How do you factor 7x cubed - 12x squared - 4x?
First, you remove every x that you can from the equation. Next, you reach the simplest form of the equation, which is (7x-2)(x-2). Which is the lowest factorable form.
Simplify 7x plus 5x equals?
It is: 12x
What is x2 plus 7x?
if its x(squared) its 7x(cubed) if its 2xX its 14x(squared)
What is the LCM of 7x and 12x?
Since x is a factor of both numbers, ignore it and find the LCM of 7 & 12. These two numbers do not share any factors, so their LCM is 7*12 = 84. Put the x back in for the final answer - 84x.
