The two factors means that the two value will equate with zero

A) 2x-6

They can be aslo simplified as :

2x-6=0

2x=6

x=3

Thus they gave only one values and cannot be expressed as the factors of two product

B) 2x+6

In this expression

we can simplify as :

2x+6

2x+6=0

2x=-6

x=-3

Thus , they are also not expressed as the factors of the two product

C) 2(x+6)

In this expression

we can simplify as :

2x+12

2x+12=0

2x=-12

x=-6

Thus , they are also not expressed as the factors of the two product

D) (2+x)÷(6+x)

They can express as fraction


\begin{gathered} (2+x)/(6+x)=((2+x))/((6+x)) \\ (2+x)/(6+x)=(2+x)(6+x)^(-1) \end{gathered}

Thus, They express as the product of the tewo factors

Answer : D) (2+x)÷(6+x)
