    X=12

    X=4

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • 48 = 48

    Step-2 : Find two factors of 48 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is - 16.

    -48 + - 1 = - 49

    -24 + - 2 = - 26

    -16 + - 3 = - 19

    -12 + - 4 = - 16 That's it

    Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, - 12 and - 4

    x2 - 12x - 4x - 48

    Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors:

    x • (x-12)

    Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors:

    4 • (x-12)

    Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4:

    (x-4) • (x-12)

    Which is the desired factorization
