Answer:

C and F. Message if you have any questions.

Explanation:

Due to the -32 in the equation, we know it must be a subtraction and addition immediately. We also know the two numbers must multiply together to equal negative 32. Which looks like every option. Lastly, the middle term, 4X means that when the two numbers are added together they equal 4, so that removes the option of all 16 and 2 options. 8 needs to be positive due to it being +4, so the answer is C and F.

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Factor out the polynomial.

Because the last number is negative this tells you one of the factors is negative and the other is positive.

Then you should look at what numbers can multiply together to equal -32, then see if those numbers add to equal positive 4.

The only numbers that satisfy the equation are (x-4)(x+8).
