Question

How to factor 9x^2-3xy+6x-2y?

Answer 1

Group the first two terms and factor out 3x
Group the last two terms and factor out 2
Now you have two terms and they have the common factor 3x-y
Factor it out

Answer 2

9x^2 - 3xy + 6x - 2y

Factor by grouping:
(9x^2 - 3xy) + (6x - 2y)

factor out the 3x on the left, and 2 on the right
3x(3x - y) + 2(3x - y)

Try to finish. There's a common factor.

Answer 3

9x^2 and 3xy has the common factor of 3 but 6x-2y doesn't.
