Respuesta :
x^2 – 4x – 5 = (x - 5)(x + 1)
cause
(x - 5)(x + 1) = x^2 -5x +x - 5= x^2 -4x - 5
so (x - 5) and (x + 1) are factors
answer
(x - 5) and (x + 1)
cause
(x - 5)(x + 1) = x^2 -5x +x - 5= x^2 -4x - 5
so (x - 5) and (x + 1) are factors
answer
(x - 5) and (x + 1)
x² - 4x - 5
x -5
x 1
(x-5)(x+1) is your answer
none of the others work, because they wont give you the desired number in the middle, -4x
hope this helps
