The first step for solving this expression is to write 6q as a difference. 8q² + 10q - 4q - 5 Now factor out 2q from the first part of the expression (8q² + 10q). 2q × (4q + 5) - 4q - 5 Extract the negative sign from the second part of the expression (-4q - 5). 2q × (4q + 5) - (4q + 5) Lastly,, factor out 4q + 5 from the expression to find your final answer. (4q + 5) × (2q - 1) This means that the correct answer to your question is (4q + 5) × (2q - 1),, or option D. Let me know if you have any further questions. :)
