Answer:

( 2x +3  ) (x-4    )

Step-by-step explanation:

2x²-5x-12

Factor

( 2x   ) (x    )

We need to look at the factors of -12

-1 *12   -2 *6   -3*4  -4*3  -6*2  -12*1

What multiplies 2 * 1st factor + the other factor to equal -5

2* -4 +3 = -8+3 =5

so the -4 goes on the outside and the 3 goes on the inside

( 2x +3  ) (x-4    )
