Respuesta :

Answer: D) (x+1)(x + 2)(x-3)

This is because the roots are x = -1, x = -2 and x = 3
Simply get all the numbers to each side to have 0 on the right side

x = -1 turns into x+1 = 0
x = -2 turns into x+2 = 0
x = 3 turns into x-3 = 0

The three factors are (x+1), (x+2) and (x-3)
Which leads to (x+1)(x+2)(x-3)
