Which is a factor of x² - 11x + 24?

A.) x - 4

B.) x - 3

C.) x + 3

D.) x + 4

B. x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't know if you're looking for both factor.

x² - 11x + 24

we have to think about what two number gives us 24 if we multiply and - 11 if we add.

8 * 3

-8 * - 3

4 * 6

-6 * - 4

12 * 2

-12 * - 2

if we check, only - 8 * - 3 gives us 24 and - 11 so

(x - 8) (x-3)

x² - 3x - 8x + 24

x² - 11x + 24

the only one match with answer is x-3
