Q:
Is the binomial a factor of the polynomial function f(x)=x^3+2x^2-16x-32
Accepted Solution
A:
Step-by-step explanation:f ( 4 ) = 64 + 32 - 64 - 32 = 0Thus x - 4 is a factorFind other factors by synthetic division."""""""|1"""""2""""- 16"""""-32"""""4|"""""""4""""""24""""""32"""""""|1"""""6"" """""8""""""0( x - 4 ) ( x ² + 6x + 8 ) = 0( x - 4 ) ( x + 4 ) ( x + 2 ) = 0x = - 2 , x = - 4, x = 4
