Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Expand the factors and compare the coefficients of like terms.
Given
(mx + 2)(3x - 5) ← expand using FOIL
= 3mx² - 5mx + 6x - 10
Compare to 12x² - 14x - 10
For the 2 to be equal, then the coefficients of like terms must be equal.
Compare coefficients of x² terms
3m = 12 ( divide both sides by 3 )
m = 4 → C
