<h3>Answer:  (x+1)(x+3)</h3>

===================================================

Explanation:

Let's assume it factors into (x+a)(x+b)

The goal is to find the two numbers a and b.

FOIL out (x+a)(x+b) to get x^2+(a+b)x+ab

Note how a+b is the middle term and ab is the last term.

In the original expression, 4 is the middle term and 3 is the last term.

So we need to find two numbers that

  • add to 4
  • multiply to 3

There are two ways to multiply to 3 and they are

  • 1 times 3 = 3
  • -1 times -3 = -3

But only the first way has the factors add to 4. So that means a = 1 and b = 3.

Therefore (x+a)(x+b) = (x+1)(x+3)

And x^2+4x+3 = (x+1)(x+3)

Answer:

(4x+5)(-3x-1) = -12x²-19x-5

Option A:

   (-16x² + 10x - 3) + (4x² - 29x - 2) = -12x²-19x-5

   Option A is correct.

Option B:

   3(x - 5) - 2(6x² + 9x + 5) = -12x²-15x-25

   Option B is wrong.

Option C:

   2(x - 1) - 3(4x² + 7x + 1) = -12x²-19x-5

   Option C is correct.

Option D:

   (2x² - 11x - 9) - (14x² + 8x - 4) = -12x²-19x-5

   Option D is correct.
