Answer:

(6x-1)(2x+1)

Explanation:

12x²+4x-1 (find two numbers that when you add or subtract them the ANS will be the coefficient of x and those same numbers when you multiply them the ANS will be the product of 12 and -1) then replace the middle term with those numbers.

12x²+6x-2x-1

(12x²+6x)(-2x-1)

6x(2x+1)-1(2x+1)

(6x-1)(2x+1)
