Answer:

(x - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 2x - 24

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 24) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 2)

The factors are + 6 and - 4, since

6 × - 4 = - 24 and 6 - 4 = + 2, thus

x² + 2x - 24 = (x + 6)(x - 4) ← in factored form

Thus the other factor is (x - 4)

(-2,-6) because when factored the values of x are -2,-6

<span>x² + 8x + 12 = 0
(x+6)(x+2)=0

x+6=0
----> x=-6

x+2=0
----> x=-2</span>
