Select the values for p, q, and r that will make the following equation true.

px2 + qx + r = (3x + 1) (x - 5)

A. p = 3

B. p = 4

C. q = - 16

D. 9 = - 14

E. r = - 5

F. r = - 4

P = 3

Q = - 14

R = - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Just solve the equation on the right side, you'll get:

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

=3x^2 - 14x - 5

Now compare it to the equation on the left side,

The coefficient of x^2 on the left is "p", on the right that we just solved is 3.

Same for "q" which is the coefficient on the left, on the right it's - 14.

And for "r" it's - 5 from the equation on the right.
