$(- 8 s + 5) (- 6 s) = 48 s^{2} - 30 s$ $(-8s+5)(-6s) = 48s^2-30s$

Explanation:

$(- 8 s + 5) (- 6 s)$ $(color(red)(-8s)+color(blue)(5))(-6s)$
$XXX = (- 8 s) (- 6 s) + (5) (- 6 s)$ $color(white)("XXX")=(color(red)(-8s))(-6s) + (color(blue)(5))(-6s)$

$XXX = 48 s^{2} - 30 s$ $color(white)("XXX")=48s^2 - 30s$
