Answer:
x^2 -x -2 = (x -2)(x +1)
Step-by-step explanation:
To factor x^2 -x -2, you look for factors of -2 that have a sum of -1:
-2 = (-1)(2) = (1)(-2) . . . . . the latter pair has a sum of -1
Then these are the constants in the binomial factors:
x^2 -x -2 = (x +1)(x -2)

<em>Comment on the question</em>
The fact that x^2 +3x -4 is modeled with algebra tiles seems to be irrelevant to the question that is actually asked.
I believe that the answer is 25

Answer:
-1.2 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's figure out where the ant is after each step.
Step 1
Start at +3.0
Move left <u> - 1.5
</u>
Now at +1.5
Step 2
Start at +1.5
Move right <u> + 4.9
</u>
Now at +6.4
Step 3
Start at +6.4
Move left <u> - 7.6
</u>
Now at -1.2
The ant is now at -1.2 cm.
