Answer:

The expression 15x + 10 is equivalent to 5(3x+2)

Explanation:

Hello, I think I can help you with this

factorize a polynomial is to break it down into two or more polynomials called factors, so that, by multiplying them, you get the original polynomial

step one

The expression 15x + 10 must be factorized, the common term between 15 and 10 is 5,


take\ each\ term\ and\ divide\ by\ the\ common\ factor\\\\15x+10= 5 ( (15x)/(5) +(10)/(5) )\\15x+10=5(3x+2)\\

so , the answer is 5(3x+2)

Do not hesitate to ask me any questions you have,Have a fantastic day
