Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² - 7x - 44
Consider the factors of the constant term (- 44) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 7)
The factors are - 11 and + 4 , since
- 11 × 4 = - 44 and - 11 + 4 = - 7 , thus
x² - 7x - 44 = (x - 11)(x + 4) ← in factored form
with (x - 11) as a factor → B
