In this equation, we want to just factor this polynomial.
00:04
And so for this one, we could group, but i also think this was kind of an easy one to just kind of eyeball, because we have 12t squared, but we also have a negative 13.
00:12
So there's really not that many ways that we can break this apart.
00:15
I think we should just try.
00:16
And if it doesn't work, we'll group.
00:18
But i'm pretty confident that this one will clean really easily.
00:21
If we just divide this in 12t and t, we're trying to get negative 13 from our constants.
00:25
So really the only way we can do that because 13 is prime is 1 and 13.
00:29
So we're either going to do a combination of negative 1 in 13 or 1 in negative 13.
00:34
That's really all we can do.
00:35
And we don't want to put the 13 on this side because then we multiply by 12 and we get a huge number, which we don't want...
