Consider the following binomials.

A=(x^2+5x) B=(6x+30)

Part 1: Factor each binomial by finding the GCF. Then, add the two factored binomials to make a single expression.

Part 2: Now add the original forms of binomial A and B together to make a trinomial. Factor the trinomial.

Part 3: Do you see something you could do to your answer in Part A to get your answer to Part B? Explain.

I know how to factor the binomials by finding the GCF. But I'm confused in this case for Parts A and B. The GCF is probably 5.
