The given trinomial can be factored using the factorization method.
x² - 2x - 24
The middle term should be written is such a way that the sum of two terms is equal to the middle one and their product should be equal to the product of first and third term. So the above expression can be written as
= x² -6x + 4x - 24
= x(x-6) + 4(x-6)
= (x-6)(x+4)
Thus, (x-6)(x+4) is the factored form of the polynomial.
So the correct answer is option B
Answer:
C. {-1, 5, 8}
Step-by-step explanation:
Use each of the domain values in the function to see what the corresponding range value is.
f(-1) = 5 -3(-1) = 8
f(0) = 5 -3(0) = 5
f(2) = 5 -3(2) = -1
The range is the set of numbers {-1, 5, 8}.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The values in a set are generally listed lowest to highest. The coefficient of x in the equation for f(x) is negative, meaning the lowest range value will correspond to the highest domain value. If you start by finding f(2) = -1, you immediately eliminate all answer choices except B and C.
Those choices differ only in the middle value, so you can tell which is correct by evaluating f(x) for the middle domain value: f(0) = 5. Only one answer choice has both -1 and 5 in the set.
(There are two answers here: how you work the problem, and how you game a multiple choice question.)

Answer:
4x-10
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply both by 2, 2x times 2 is 4x, and 5 times 2 is 10, so it becomes 4x-10.
