You don't factor an equation. You factor an expression.
So we'll forget about the "equals 0" for a second, while we factor "x2 plus 5x plus 6".
x2 + 5x + 6 = (x + 3) (x + 2).
Now, if you want this expression to be equal to zero, that can only happen when 'x' is -2 or -3.

Factor x2 plus 5x-120?
x2 + 5x - 120 can not be factored.
X2 plus 5x plus 3 equals 9?
x2 + 5x + 3 = 9 x2 + 5x - 6 = 0 (x + 6)(x - 1) = 0 x = -6 or x = 1
How do you factor x2 plus 5X-6 into two binomials?
x2+5x-6 = (x+6)(x-1) when factored
What is the binomials is a factor of this trinomial x2 -5x plus 4?
x2-5x+4 = (x-1)(x-4) when factored
Factor x2 plus 5x - 24?
(x + 8)(x - 3)
Which of the binomials below is factor of this trinomial x2-5x plus 4 equals?
