Maybe if this question is from the tys, I can help you. Is it ?
expand the left side becomes 3x^2 +3px -x -p = 3x^2 + x(3p-1) - p
Compare wif right side and you get your answer XD
-2= -p
p= 2
3p-1 = q
q= 5

Understood lers =)
Good luck, you can do it. :)
3x^2 +3px -x -p = 3x^2 + qx - p
3x^2 +x(3p-1) -p = 3x^2 + x(q) - p
Can you see ?
