Answer: 1) C. (x+3)(x+7)

2) D. (x-3)(x-8)

3) C. (x-2)(x+4)

5) B. (x+9)(x-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

x2 + 10x + 21

(we look for 2 numbers whose product gives 21 and whose sum gives 10, then replace 10x by those two numbers)

x2 + 7x + 3x +21

x(x+7) + 3(x+7)

(x+3)(x+7)

2)

x2 - 11x + 24

(we look for 2 numbers whose product gives 24 and whose sum gives -11, then replace -11x by those two numbers)

x2 -3x-8x +24

x(x-3) -8(x-3)

(x-3)(x-8)

3)

x2 + 2x - 8

(we look for 2 numbers whose product gives -8 and whose sum gives 2, then replace 2x by those two numbers)

x2 + 2x - 8

x2 + 4x - 2x - 8

x(x+4) -2(x+4)

(x+4)(x-2)

5)

x2 - 81

Its a difference of two squares

(x-9)(x+9)
