Answer:

  (b)  (x -10)(x +10)

Step-by-step explanation:

The factorization of the difference of squares is a special form:

  a² -b² = (a -b)(a +b)

Application

Your expression is recognizable as the difference of squares:

  x² -100 = x -10²

Using the above form, the factorization is ...

  = (x -10)(x +10) . . . . . . . . matches the second choice
