Replace it with its factors and then simplify

(-2 + -1x)(3 + -1x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nope (x-3)(x+2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Simplifying (x2 + -1x + -6) Reorder the terms: (-6 + -1x + x2) Remove parenthesis around (-6 + -1x + x2) -6 + -1x + x2 Factor a trinomial. (-2 + -1x)(3 + -1x) Final result: (-2 + -1x)(3 + -1x)
