Factorise 6x squares minus 14x

This can be done by find its roots. Knowing its roots, you'll be able to factor your equation, as follows:
First, let's solve this using Bhaskara:
−
14
±
√
14
2
−
4
(
6
)
(
−
12
)
2
⋅
6

−
14
±
22
12
Roots:
x
=
−
3
, which is the same as the factor
x
+
3
=
0

x
=
2
3
, which is the same as the factor
3
x
−
2
=
0
Using these factors, we can rewrite the original function:
6
x
2
+
14
x
−

x
−

)
=
