2. (x+3)(x-2)

3. (x-2)(x-25)

4. (x-5)(x+5)

I hope it helps

Answer 2

see explanation

Explanation:

In 13 - 17

Consider the factors of the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term

13

x² - x - 42 = (x - 7)(x + 6)

15

x² + x - 6 = (x + 3)(x - 2)

17

x² - 27x + 50 = (x - 25)(x - 2)

19

r² - 25 ← is a difference of squares and factors in general as

a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b) , thus

r² - 25

= r² - 5² = (r - 5)(r + 5)
