Given: " (x + 3)(x – 8) " ; expand :
______________________________________
Note: (a + b) (c + d) = ac + ad + bc + bd .
_____________________________________
a = x ;
b = 3 ;
c = x
d = 8
_______________________________________
" (x + 3)(x – 8) " ;
= (x * x) + ( -8 * x) + ( 3 * x ) + (3 * -8) ;
= x² + (-8x) + 3x + (-24) ;
= x² – 8x + 3x – 24 ;
→ Combine the "like terms" :
– 8x + 3x = – 5x ;
And simplify the expression;
to get:
→ " x² – 5x – 24 " ; which is: Answer choice: [D]: " x² – 5x – 24 " .

Answer:
If Jaxon works 9 years he will eventually make 76,000$. 40,000$ their regular salary 36,000$ is just the raise they get after working the same job without the normal salary involved.
Step-by-step explanation:
40,000 as it is
9 Times 4,000 is 36,000
So 40,000 Plus 36,000 Equals 76,000$
The factor is the solution of zeros of the equation and x + 2 making it zero therefore x + 2 will be the solution of the given polynomial so option (B) will be correct.
<h3>What are the roots of an equation?</h3>
Roots of an equation are the solution of that equation since an equation consists of hidden values of the variable to determine them by different processes and then the resultant is called roots.
Given the polynomial,
x³ + 2x² - 9x - 18
A factor is consist of a solution of zeros of any polynomial.
For example;
x² + 5x + 6 = 0
x(x + 2) + 3(x + 2) = 0
(x + 3)(x + 2) = 0
Here x + 3 and x + 2 are factor and solution is x = -3 and -2
Similarly,
x³ + 2x² - 9x - 18 = 0
The factor must be the solution to this.
By cross-checking option
Option (A) x + 1 = 0 → x = -1
Keeping x = -1
(-1)³ + 2(-1)² - 9(-1) - 18 = -8 ≠ 0 so it is not the factor.
Option (B) (x + 2) = 0 → x = -2
(-2)³ + 2(-2)² - 9(-2) - 18
-8 + 8 + 18 - 18 = 0 = 0 so it will be factor of the polynomial.
Hence " x + 2 will be the solution of the given polynomial".
