Answer: 5(x+1)(x+4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF).
GCF= 5
Factor out the GCF. (Write the GCF first. Then, in parentheses, divide each term by the GCF.)
[tex]5(\frac{5x^2}{5} + \frac{25x}{5} +\frac{20}{5} )[/tex]
Simplify each term in parentheses.
[tex]5(x^2+5x+4)[/tex]
Factor 5(x^2+5x+4)
5(x+1)(x+4)
