Answer:

[tex]\fbox{\begin{minipage}{13em}Option D: 2(3x + 4)(3x - 4)\end{minipage}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

      [tex]A = 18x^{2} - 32\\[/tex]

Find the sharing components:

<=> [tex]A=2*9*x^{2} - 2*16[/tex]

Apply the inverse of associative property:

<=> [tex]A = 2(9x^{2} - 16)[/tex]

Identify two square components inside the parenthesis:

<=> [tex]A = 2((3x)^{2} - 4^{2} )[/tex]

Factorize:

<=> [tex]A = 2(3x + 4)(3x - 4)[/tex]

=> Option D is correct

Hope this helps!
