Answer

$-(y-2)(2y-3)$.

Work Step by Step

The given polynomial is $=-2y^2+7y-6$ Factor out $-1$. $=-(2y^2-7y+6)$ Rewrite $-7y$ as $-4y-3y$. $=-(2y^2-4y-3y+6)$ Group the terms. $=-[(2y^2-4y)+(-3y+6)]$ Factor each group. $=-[2y(y-2)-3(y-2)$ Factor out $(y-2)$. $=-(y-2)(2y-3)$ Hence, the factor of the polynomial is $-(y-2)(2y-3)$.
