a cube with side length 5h^2 is stacked on another cube with side length 3k. what is the total volume of the cubes in factored form?

The volume of the first cube is (5h^2)^3, while the volume of the second cube is (3k)^3, so their total volume is (5h^2)^3 + (3k)^3. We can use the special formula for factoring a sum of two cubes:
x^3 + y^3 = (x + y)(x^2 - xy + y^2)
(5h^2)^3 + (3k)^3 = (5h^2 + 3k)((5h^2)^2 - (5h^2)(3k) + (3k)^2)
= (5h^2 + 3k)(25h^4 - 15(h^2)(k) + 9k^2)
This is the second of the given choices.
