The equation is:

Find-:

Binomials factor of the equation

Explanation-:

The quadratic equation,

Solve for factor

$\begin{gathered} =x^2+3x-4 \\ \\ =x^2+4x-x-4 \\ \end{gathered}$

Then the factor is:

$\begin{gathered} =x^2+4x-x-4 \\ \\ =x(x+4)-1(x+4) \\ \\ =(x+4)(x-1) \end{gathered}$

So, the factor is x + 4
