Problem:

What is the factored form of x²-x-12?

a. (x-3)(x+4)

b. (x-4)(x-3)

c. (x+3)(x-4)

d. (x+3)(x+4)​

Solution:

(x² + 3x) + (-4x - 12)

x(x + 3) - 4(x + 3)

(x + 3) (x - 4)

Answer:

(x + 3) (x - 4)

Answer:

3. What is the factored form of x²-x-12?

a. (x-3)(x+4)

b. (x-4)(x-3)

c. (x+3)(x-4)

d. (x+3)(x+4)

When you use FOIL METHOD it would be:

[tex](x + 3)(x - 4) \\ x {}^{2} + 3x - 4x - 12 \\ x {}^{2} - x - 12[/tex]
