Answer:

D


Explanation:

The question is to factor
2a^2-10a+3ab-15b


We group the first 2 terms and find common factor. We group the last 2 terms and find common factor. Simplifying we get:


2a^2-10a+3ab-15b\\=(2a^2-10a)+(3ab-15b)\\=2a(a-5)+3b(a-5)\\=(2a+3b)(a-5)


Clearly, answer choice D is correct.
