The first step in factoring to take out the common factor, in this case, 5x^3.

5x^3(9x+10)


Final answer.


I have additional explanation with examples solved in LIVING COLOR on my own website.  Please go to "www2.seminolestate.edu/rrapalje".  Look for the links on my Homepage "Basic, Intermediate, and College Algebra: One Step at a Time" and also "MATH IN LIVING COLOR", and look under "Basic Algebra" (Chapter 2) for several sections on different types of Factoring.  


I also have a video from my own teaching in class before I retired a few years ago in Basic Algebra.  To see the video, look for "Rapalje Videos in Living Color", and see Basic Algebra for the topic of Factoring.  


I think you will find the explanations, both written and video, much easier to understand than traditional textbooks.  Best of all, it's all FREE--even the VIDEO!!
