Question
What is the factorization of the trinomial below?x2 - 3x - 18A.(x + 3)(x - 6)B.(x + 6)(x - 3)C.(x + 2)(x - 9)D.(x + 9)(x - 2)SUBMITarrow_backPREVIOUS
Solution
The factorization of the trinomial x^2 - 3x - 18 can be found by finding two numbers that multiply to -18 and add to -3.
The two numbers that satisfy these conditions are -6 and 3.
Therefore, the factorization of the trinomial is (x - 6)(x + 3), which corresponds to option A.
