please read below;

Getting the factors of an equation is different from looking for the results of an equation..

But its clearly stated that you want to factor out the equation above and not to solve, find or evaluate..

Well, the question can't be factorized but can be solved using the Quadratic Formula, also known as the Almighty Formula..

can't be factored

#f(x) = 2x^2 - 11x + 6#
#D = d^2 = b^2 - 4ac = 121 - 48 = 73#
Since D is not a perfect square, this trinomial can't be factored
