Answer:


\boxed{\sf{(x-4)(x-6)}}

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, all you have to do is multiply their expressions by their factors.

To begin, you must group these expressions.


\sf{x^2-10x+24=\left(x^2-4x\right)+\left(-6x+24\right)}

After that, you factor.

Solve.


\sf{x^2-4=x(x-4)}

-6x+24=-6(x-4)

Then rewrite the problem down.

x(x-4)-6(x-4)

Factor by the common term.

(x-4)(x-6)

Therefore, the final answer is (x-4)(x-6).

I hope this helps you! Let me know if my answer is wrong or not.
