Answer:

a. 5(15-19)

Explanation:

to factor out this expression you need to find the greatest common factor (GCF) in order to fully factor out the expression

the GCF of the number 75 and -95 is 5

divide both numbers by 5 to get 15 and -19

to finish out with the fully factored expression put 15-19 inside parenthesis and put a 5 outside of the parenthesis as shown below:

5(15-19)
