Answer 2

Hi! Let me help you! :)

• Remember, factoring looks like so:
• ab+ac=a(b+c)
• In this case, a is the common term, so we factor it out.
• Now, let's check our polynomial and see if we can spot the common term.
• All terms are divisible by 4, so 4 is the common term.
• 4x²-4x-8

• x²-x-2

Answer:

x²-x-2
