Answer 2

Hi there! :)

Answer:

`\huge\boxed{D, x -4}`

---- Starting with: ----

x² - 10x + 24

Since we have a leading coefficient of 1, simply find two numbers that sum up to -10 and multiply into 24.

By guessing and checking, we get the numbers -6 and -4. Put these into factors:

(x - 6)(x - 4)

Therefore, a binomial present in factored form is D. x - 4
