(x + 6)(x + 2)
-6
Find out what two numbers add up to -8 yet when mutiplied they produce 12 and so: x squared-8x+12 = (x-2)(x-6) when factored
If: x^2 -8x = -12 then x^2-8x+12 = 0 and so x = 2 or x = 6
(7x + 6)(x - 2)
2(4m-3)
(x + 6)(x + 2)
x2 - 9x + 18 = (x - 3)(x - 6)
That does not factor neatly.
8x + 5z - 4x + 3z + 6 = 8x - 4x + 5z + 3z - 6 = 4x + 8z - 6
Take out the common factor, 3: 3x + 6 = 3(x + 2).

(x-2)(x-3)
3(7x-6)
The GCF is 2.
44x^6 not 44x6 and 8x^5 not 8x5, my bad
