Answer:

(x - 12)(x + 2)

Explanation:

Given

x² - 10x - 24

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 24) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 10)

The factors are - 12 and + 2 , since

- 12 × + 2 = - 24 and - 12 + 2 = - 10 , thus

x² - 10x - 24 = (x - 12)(x + 2) ← in factored form
