Factor
x² + 11x + 24

• (x + 6)(x + 4)

• (x + 10)(x + 2)

• (x + 8)(x + 3)

• (x + 2)(x + 12)

Answer explanation

To factor x² + 11x + 24, we look for two numbers that multiply to 24 and add to 11. The numbers 8 and 3 fit this, so the expression factors to (x + 8)(x + 3).

• (x - 12)(x - 3)

• (x + 3)(x + 12)

• (x + 12)(x - 3)

• (x + 3)(x - 12)
