Since we have 4 terms, note the following Cube root calculations:

The Cube root of the first term 8x3 is denoted below:
Cube Root of the Constant Piece = (8)1/3 = 2
Cube Root of the Variable Piece (Divide exponents by 3) = x3÷3 = x
Our final Cube root term becomes 2x

The Cube root of term 4 = 125 is denoted below:
Cube Root of the Constant Piece = (150)1/3 = 5
Our final Cube root term becomes 5

8x3 + 60x2 + 150x + 125 fits a pattern which is called a binomial expansion.

The binomial theorem is shown below:

The formula for this is a(x + y)n = aΣ[k = 0 to n]C(n,k) xn-kyk where
C(n,k)  =  n!
  k!(n - k)!

In this case, n = 3, x = 2x, a = < b > < span style='color:green' > < /span > < /b > , and y = 5 and our factored expression becomes:
(2x + 5)3
To prove this, we check our expand calculator

Our factored out term becomes:

((2x + 5)3)
