Since −12-12 does not contain the variable to solve for, move it to the right side of the equation by adding 12 to both sides.x2−4x=12Move 12 to the left side of the equation by subtracting it from both sides.x2−4x−12=0Factor x2−4x−12x2-4x-12 using the AC method.(x−6)(x+2)=0Set x−6 equal to 0 and solve for x.x=6Set x+2 equal to 0 and solve for x.x=−2The solution is the result of x−6=0 and x+2=0x=6,−2
