Answer:

B. (-3x-6i)(x+2i)

C. (-3x-6i)(x+2i)

Since they are the same answer choice. Should be (-3x-6i)(x-2i) should be the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The polynomial -3x^2-12 can be factored using GCF into -3(x^2+4).

x^2+4 is a sum of squares and factors into the form (x+ai)(x-ai).

x^2+4 factors into (x+2i)(x-2i).

We put them together and have -3(x+2i)(x-2i) = (-3x-6i)(x-2i)
