Given the equation,
2x3+mx2-13x+n=0
Roots of the equation = 2 and 3
So, put x=2 and x=3 in the given polynomial.
Given polynomial,
2x2+mx-13x+n
At x=2 and equate to zero,
f(2)=2(2)3+m(2)2-13(2)+n=0 
16+4m-26+n=0 
4m+n=10(1)  

At, x= 3 and equate to zero,
f(3)=2(3)3+m(3)2-13(3)+n=0 
54+9m-39+n=0 
9m+n=-15.(2) 


Subtract equation (1) from (2):
9m+n-4 m-n=-15-10 
5m=-25  
m=25-5=-5 
m=-5   Now we put the value of m in equation (1)
4m+n=10 
4-5+n=10 
-20+n=10 
n=30 

Therefore, the value of m=-5 and n=30.

The sum of cubic roots,
α+β+γ=-ba
2+3+p=52 
5+p=52 
p=52-51 
p=5-102 
p=-52                    [third root]
As per given question we have determine m+n+2p then,
m+n+2p=-5+30+2-52 
=25-5 
=20 
Hence, the required value of m+n+2p=20
