a, x^2 + 5x +4

= x^2 + 1x + 4x + 4

= (x^2 + 1x) + (4x + 4)

= x ( x + 1 ) + 4 ( x + 1 )

= (x + 1) (x + 4)

b, x^2 - 6x + 5

= x^2 - 1x - 5x + 5

= (x^2 - 1x) - (5x - 5)

= x (x - 1) - 5 (x - 1)

= (x - 1) (x - 5)

c, x^2 + 7x + 12

= x^2 + 3x + 4x + 12 

= (x^2 + 3x) + (4x + 12)

= x (x + 3) + 4 (x + 3)

= (x + 3) (x + 4)

d, 2x^2 - 5x + 3

= 2^x2 - 2x - 3x + 3

= 2x (x - 1) - 3 (x - 1)

= (x-1) (2x - 3)

e, 7x  - 3x^2 - 4

= 3x + 4x - 3x^2 - 4

= (3x - 3x^2) + (4x - 4)

= 3x (1 - x) + 4 (x - 1)

= 3x (1-x) - 4 (1 - x)

= (1 - x) (3x - 4)

f, x^2 - 10x + 16

= x^2 - 2x - 8x + 16

= (x^2 - 2x) - (8x - 16)

= x (x - 2) - 8 (x - 2)

= (x - 2) (x - 8)
