To solve the problem, we need to show that if both \( x - 2 \) and \( x - \frac{1}{2} \) are factors of the polynomial \( p x^2 + 5x + r \), then \( p = r \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Factors**: Since \( x - 2 \) and \( x - \frac{1}{2} \) are factors of the polynomial, we can express the polynomial as: \[ p x^2 + 5x + r = (x - 2)\left(x - \frac{1}{2}\right) ...
