Question

Well we could make some guesses and possibly come to an answer.  But if we want to solve this algebraically, we have to have a zero on the right to use zero-product property or quadratic formula.  That means we need to undo this multiplication and assimilate the 6 into the quadratic equation.
  ( x + 2 )( x - 3 ) = 6  
We would expand the left-hand side by FOIL method or distribution.
Then we subtract 6 from both sides.  We can then re-factor the left side.
