After you factor it, which parentheses are the answer?

If you were to use the FOIL rule and multiply out (x+3)(x+5), you would get x^2+8x+15

F = multiply first terms = x*x = x^2

O = multiply outer terms = x*5 = 5x

I = multiply inner terms = 3*x = 3x

L = multiply last terms 3*5 = 15

The four terms we get are x^2, 5x, 3x and 15

Add them up. Combine like terms

x^2+5x+3x+15 = x^2+8x+15

Therefore, (x+3)(x+5) = x^2+8x+15

With factoring, we think of this process in reverse

What two numbers multiply to 15 and add to 8? Those two numbers happen to be 5 and 3 which is where the (x+5)(x+3) comes from
