To find, the value of p = ?
(x + p) is a factor of P(x).
∴ x + p = 0
⇒ x = - p
∴ P(x):x^2+px+(3-p)=0
x^2+px+(3-p)=0 ...... (1)
Put x = = - p in (1),
we get
(-p)^2+p(-p)+3-p=0
⇒ p^2-p^{2} +3-p=0
⇒ 3-p=0
⇒ p = 3
Hence, the value of "p is equal to 3".
hope u understood ;)

If (x+p) is a factor of the given polynomial.
then, x+p=0 =>x=-p is a zero of the polynomial.
i.e.
therefore,p=3(ans)
