HELLO!!
ANSWER:
p = 1/3
EXPLANATION:
GIVEN:
f(x) = 5px² - 4px - 3
2x - 3 is a factor of f(x).
2x - 3 = 0
2x = 3
x = 3/2
TO FIND:
p = ?
SOLUTION:
f(3/2) = 5p(3/2)² - 4p(3/2) - 3 = 0
5p(9/4) - 4p(3/2) - 3 = 0
45/4 p - 6p - 3 = 0
45/4 p - 6p = 3
45p - 6p = 3*4
39p = 12
p = 12/36
p = 1/3
HOPE IT HELPS YOU!!
