Answer:

(x + 2)(x + 3)

Explanation:

To factor perfect square trinomials, we have to follow a certain trick, the two factor numbers must equal b (in this case 5x) when added and equal c (in this case 6) when multiplied.

Simply enough, two numbers that do this is 2 and 3.

Therefore, our factor numbers are 2 and 3, making the last eqaution (x + 2)(x + 3)
