Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Factoring Methods

[tex]4x^3-8x^2-9x+18\\[/tex]

put bracket around each 2 terms as such [tex](4x^3-8x^2)+(-9x+18)[/tex]

And then factor each respective bracket. We'll start with the first one

[tex](4x^3-8x^2) = 4x^2(x-2)[/tex]

Then do the other, and try to get similar brackets as the first

[tex](-9x+18)=-9(x-2)[/tex]

Since they are both simiar, the equation is now: [tex](4x^2-9)(x-2)[/tex]

Now factor the first bracket again for final result

[tex]4x^2-9=(2x-3)(2x+3)[/tex]

Ans when you put it all together, you get: [tex](2x-3)(2x+3)(x-2)[/tex]

Correct answer is option D
