This is the polynomial equation and rewrite the middle term as a sum of two terms whose products is a*c=10*-6 and whose sum is b = -11

Factor -11 out of -11X

10X² - 11(X) - 6

Rewrite 11 as 15 + 4

10 x² + (-15 + 4)x -6

10x² -15x + 4x -6

Factor out the greatest common factor from each group.

5x(2x - 3) +2(2x - 3)

(5x + 2) (2x - 3)
