Answer:
B. -3(4x + 1) (x - 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Out of the other answer choices, "B," is the only that factorizes correctly and ends up with the correct factorization (It already gives you the break-down of the trinomial).
However, if you're unsure about the answer, you can always take the end result: -3(4x + 1) (x - 4), and multiply it together to see if you can end up with the original trinomial: [tex]-12x^2 + 45x + 12[/tex]
