Answer:

  1. (x -3)(x -1)

  2. (x -4)(x +1)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The long division is shown in the first attachment. The quotient is (x -3), so the factorization is ...

  x^2 -4x +3 = (x -1)(x -3)

2. The long division is shown in the second attachment. The quotient is (x -4), so the factorization is ...

  x^2 -3x -4 = (x +1)(x -4)
