Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

We can check their factorising by expanding the factors using FOIL

(2x - 4)(x + 5)

= 2x² + 10x - 4x - 20 ← collect like terms

= 2x² + 6x - 20 ← correct

and

(x - 2)(2x + 10)

= 2x² + 10x - 4x - 20 ← collect like terms

= 2x² + 6x - 20 ← correct

However both omitted to factor out 2 as a common factor

Given

2x² + 6x - 20 ← factor out 2 from each term

= 2(x² + 3x - 10)

= 2(x + 5)(x - 2) ← in fully factored form
