let's solve :

first step : we have to expand the term in L.H.S

$(x + 3)(x - 5)$
${x}^{2} - 5x + 3x - 15$
${x}^{2} - 2x - 15$

now, let's equate the equations to find the value of m :

${x}^{2} - 2x - 15 = {x}^{2} + mx - 15$

value of m = -2

Answer:

Refer to the diagram in the attachment.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two events here: the first one is the number on the cube. The second one is the outcome of the coin toss. This tree should contain two columns, one for each event.

Start with the first column. Let $N$ be the outcome of the number cube. There are six possible values: $\text{$1,\, 2,\, 3,\, 4,\, 5,$ and $6$}$ . That corresponds to six branches, one for each outcome.

Continue to the second column. Let $C$ be the outcome of the coin toss. No matter which number was obtained for $N$ , there would always be two possible outcomes for
