For this case we must factor the following expression:

[tex]x ^ 2 + 5x-6[/tex]

We must find two numbers that, when multiplied, result in -6 and when added together, result in +5. These numbers are: -1 and +6.

[tex]-1+6=5\\-1*6=-6[/tex]

Then, we can factor the expression as:

[tex](x-1) (x+6)[/tex]

Answer:

[tex](x-1) (x+6)[/tex]
