The answer is 5! Hope this helps!
First you multiply the last term by the first term (3h+16h+15). Then find numbers that add to 16 and multiply to 15 then add or subtract it from (3h+15)(3h+1). Then factor if possible (h+5)(3h+1)
The answer is 1, 4, and 5 because to be linear, they have to make up a straight line together.
