Given p (x) = 3x5+2x2-5, Alonso wants to find out whether 3x+5 is a factor. Which value of x should he evaluate for p (x) to determine the answer?

-5/3

3/5

5/3

-3/5

What is the value of the function at the x-value you selected?

The answer to your question is below

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question just clear x from the divisor.

3x + 5 = 0

3x + 5 - 5 = 0 - 5

3x = - 5

3x/3 = - 5/3

x = - 5/3 First question

Now evaluate the function at x = - 5/3

p (-5/3) = 3 (-5/3) ⁵ + 2 (-5/3) ² - 5

p (-5/3) = 3 (-3125/243) + 2 (25/9) - 5

p (-5/3) = 3 (-12.86) + 5.56 - 5

p (-5/3) = - 38.58 + 5.56 - 5

p (-5/3) = - 38.02 Second question
