Can you factor 12x squared + 14x + 6???

I dare you to try. Ive spent like an hour on this, and any other trinomial i factor turns out right. Please help its driving me insane.

I'd firs check if it gets a decent answer in the quadratic equation before trying to factor, to make sure I'm not wasting my time.

(-14 +/- sqrt(196 - 288))/24

-14 +/- sqrt(-92) / 24

The square root of -92 is irrational (and imaginary to boot), so you can't factor it. The most you can do is just factor out a 2.

I hope this information was very helpful.

This is the wrong question.As a function: Y = 12X ^ 2 +14 X-+6 = 12 (+7 / 12) ^ 2 +23 / 12
Y minimum is 23/12. So 12X ^ 2 +14 X +6 is not equal to 0, it is not factoring.
(Factorization as a function, it must be, and the X-axis crossing point)

12x^2 + 14x + 6 =
2(6x^2 + 7x + 3)
The determinant of 6x^2 + 7x + 3 =
7^2 - 4(6)3 =
49 - 72 =
-23 < 0 so the roots are imaginary
Therefore, 6x^2 + 7x + 3 doesn't factor nicely.
