Answer:
The factored form is
[tex]x^2-7x+2x-14=(x+2)(x-7)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the trinomial
[tex]x^2-5x-14[/tex]
we have to factor the above trinomial.
[tex]x^2-5x-14[/tex]
By middle term splitting method
[tex]x^2-7x+2x-14[/tex]
Taking x common from first two terms and 2 from last two terms
[tex]x(x-7)+2(x-7)[/tex]
[tex](x+2)(x-7)[/tex]
which are required factors.
Hence, option B is correct.
