Answer:

Explanation:

We first rewrite the terms of 48x² +38x + 5 to 48x² + 8x + 30x + 5

We then regroup terms into two proportional parts: (48x² +8x) + (30x + 5)

Factor the expression: 8x(6x + 1) + 5(6x + 1)

We then factor 8x(6x + 1) + 5(6x + 1) to (6x + 1)(8x + 5)

Now that we know (ax + b) and (cx + 1) is (6x + 1)(8x + 5) we just need to apply the numbers to their corresponding letters:

A=8

B=5

C=6
