Question

Factor completely −4x2 + 16x − 24.

Answer 1

Answer:

Option B is correct

factor completely of $-4x^2+16x-24$ is $-4(x^2-4x+6)$

Step-by-step explanation:

GCF(Greatest Common Factor) states that the largest factor that divides the polynomial.

Given the expression:

$-4x^2+16x-24$

By definition of GCF we have;

Factor a GCF of the given expression.

Since GCF of $-4x^2$, $16x$ and -24  is -4

then;

$-4(x^2-4x+6)$

Therefore, factor completely of $-4x^2+16x-24$ is $-4(x^2-4x+6)$

Answer 2

The answer is choice B.
