To factor the quadratic expression
, we need to find two numbers that multiply to 8 (the constant term) and add up to -6 (the coefficient of the linear term).Let's find these numbers:1. The product of the two numbers should be 8.2. The sum of the two numbers should be -6.The numbers that satisfy these conditions are -2 and -4 because:- \((-2) \times (-4) = 8\)- \((-2) + (-4) = -6\)So, we can factor the quadratic expression as:
Therefore, the correct answer is:
So, the correct choice is:
