Answer:
let p(x) = 2x³+3x²+px+q
& q(x) = x²-x-6
= x²-3x+2x-6
= x(x-3)+2(x-3)
= (x-3)(x+2)
Now ,
p(x) = 2x³+3x²+px+q
p(2) = 2(8)+3(4)+2p+q = 0
16+12+2p+q = 0
2p+q = -28 .............1
p(-3) = 2(-27)+3(9)-3p+q = 0
-56+27-3p+q = 0
-3p+q = 27
3p-q = -27 .................2
from 1&2
3p-q = -27
+ 2p+q = -28
5p = -55
p = -5
Then q = -18
hence p+q = -5 -18 = -23
