Step-by-step explanation:
The best way to start is to take out the common factor (2)
2 (x^2 - x - 20)
What two numbers when multiplied together have a difference of 1 and multiply to 20?
The answer is 5 and 4, but you have to take the signs into consideration.
2 (x - 5) (x + 4)

Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF)
GCF = 2
Factor out the GCF. (Write the GCF first. Then, in parentheses, divide each term by the GCF.)
2 (2x^2/2 + - 2x/2 - 40/2)
Simplify each term in parentheses
2 (x^2 - x - 20)
Factor x^2 - x - 20
= 2 (x - 5) (x + 4)
