Simon is factoring the polynomial.
x2 – 4x – 12
(x – 6)(x +
what value should simon write on the line?

Hence, the value that Simon should write on the line i.e. in the blank space is: 2

( Since,   )

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to fill in the blank with the value obtained on factoring the polynomial:

on sing the method of splitting the middle term we will factor our polynomial as follows:

Hence, the value that Simon should write on the line i.e. in the blank space is: 2

( Since,   )
