(18-2X)(8-2X)
Take each side and subtract 2X, then multiply them together for the area.
Answer: First option.
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to remember that to factorize the given expression
, you need to choose two numbers that when you add them you get "10" and when you multiply them you get "21".
These number are:
7 and 3
Because:
![7+3=10\\7*3=21](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=7%2B3%3D10%5C%5C7%2A3%3D21)
Therefore, you get that the factorization of the expression
is the following:
![(x+3)(x+7)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28x%2B3%29%28x%2B7%29)
You can observe that this factorization matches with the first option.
