Respuesta :

[tex](x+1)(x-3)[/tex]

Explanation

[tex]x^2-2x-3[/tex]

Step 1

we have a expression in the form.

[tex]x^2-2x-3\Rightarrow wx^2+yx+z[/tex]

we need two a and b numbers such as

[tex]\begin{gathered} a+b=-2 \\ a\cdot b=-3 \\ \text{then a}\Rightarrow1,\text{ b}\Rightarrow-3 \\ 1-3=-2 \\ 1\cdot-3=-3 \end{gathered}[/tex]

now, we can factorize

[tex]\begin{gathered} x^2-2x-3=\mleft(x+a\mright)\mleft(x+b\mright) \\ x^2-2x-3=\mleft(x+1\mright)\mleft(x-3\mright) \end{gathered}[/tex]

I hope this helps you
