Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2k² - k - 3

Consider the factors of the product of the k² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the k- term.

product = 2 × - 3 = - 6 and sum = - 1

The factors are + 2 and - 3

Use these factors to split the k- term

2k² + 2k - 3k - 3 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

= 2k(k + 1) - 3(k + 1) ← factor out (k + 1) from each term

= (2k - 3)(k + 1) → A

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the fractions are being multiplied

Factorise the denominators of both fractions

x² - 3x - 10 = (x - 5)(x + 2)

x² + x - 12 = (x + 4)(x - 3)

The product can now be expressed as

\frac{x-5}{(x-5)(x+2)} × \frac{x+2}{(x+4)(x-3)}

Cancel (x - 5) and (x + 2) on the numerators/ denominators, leaving

\frac{1}{(x+4)(x-3)} = \frac{1}{x^2+x-12}
