Answer:
It is facotrable. The factors are (-3x)(2x) or -(2x)(3x). You can factor it by finding the GCF.
Factor of -6x² - x + 2:
Factor -1 out of -6x²-x+2:
-(6x² - x + 2)
---------------------------------------
Factor the quadratic 6x²+x-2. The coefinient of x² is 6 and the constant term is -2. the product of 6 and -2 is -12. The factor of -12 which sum to 1 are -3 and 4. So 6x² + x - 2 = 6x² + 4x - 3x - 2 = 2(2x - 1) + 3x(2x + 1):
-(2x - 1) (3x + 2)
Factor of 2x - 1 from 2(2x - 1) + 3x(2x - 1)
Ans: -(2x - 1) (3x + 2)
