Solution

To find out which binomial is a factor of the trinomial, we need to factorize the trinomial.

The trinomial is x^2 - 9x + 18.

We need to find two numbers that multiply to 18 (the last term in the trinomial) and add up to -9 (the coefficient of the middle term).

Those two numbers are -3 and -6 because -3*-6 = 18 and -3 + -6 = -9.

So, the trinomial factors into (x - 3)(x - 6).

Therefore, the binomial that is a factor of the trinomial is D. x - 3.
