Respuesta :

From the expression:

[tex]6x^2-13x[/tex]

We can see there is a common factor for the two terms: x. Then, we can express the binomial as a producto of the common factor x and a new binomial. This new binomial is composed by the terms of the original one divided by the common factor. If we divide 6x^2 by x we obtain 6x, while dividing -13x by x, we obtain -13. Then, the factorization of the previous expressino will be:

[tex]6x^2-13x=x(6x-13)[/tex]
