Answer:

(x+11)(x−11)

Explanation:

The middle number is 0 and the last number is -121.

Factoring means we want something like

(x+_)(x+_)

Which numbers go in the blanks?

We need two numbers that...

Add together to get 0

Multiply together to get -121

Can you think of the two numbers?

Try 11 and -11:

11+-11 = 0

11*-11 = -121

Fill in the blanks in

(x+_)(x+_)

with 11 and -11 to get...

(x+11)(x-11)
