Please simply post your question. It is not necessary to "ask to ask" a math question.

Answer 2

[8.04] Find the factors of 3a2 + 14a − 24.

(3a − 6)(a + 4)

(3a − 4)(a + 6)

(3a + 2)(a − 12)
Oh, okay, Is it D?

Answer 3

I meant sorry, c?

Answer 4

3a^2 + 14a - 24

Answer 16

5x^2 + 6x - 8

(x + 2)(5x - 4)

Answer 17

try to post it as a new question, and as Hero said, try them out first. Struggling on these is the best way to learn. If you are still confuse then you are always welcome and encourage to ask for hints and such
