Question

Completely factor the polynomial below.

Answer 1

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.
