p(x)=3(xsquared+10x+5)-5(x-k)
In the polynomial p(x) defined above, k is a constant. If p(x) is divisible by x, what is the value of x?

Probably, you want to ask ". . . what is the value of k?"
(otherwise your question does not make sense . . ./:).
In order the polynomial p(x)= would be divisible by x, its constant term must be zero. In other words,
