If f(–2) = 0, what are all the factors of the function f (x) = x cubed minus 2 x squared minus 68 x minus 120? use the remainder theorem.

Respuesta :

Then all factors of the function f(x) = x³ – 2x² – 68x – 120 is (x + 2), (x + 6), and (x – 10).

What is a factorization?

It is the method to separate the polynomial into parts and the parts will be in multiplication. And the value of the polynomial at this point will be zero.

If f(–2) = 0, that mean one root is –2.

The function f(x) = x³ – 2x² – 68x – 120

We have the one factor is (x + 2)

Then the function can be written as

f(x) = (x + 2)(x² – 4x – 60)

f(x) = (x + 2)(x² – 10x + 6x – 60)

f(x) = (x + 2)[(x(x – 10) + 6(x – 10)]

f(x) = (x + 2)(x – 10)(x + 6)
