-If P(x) is of degree 2 and the two

factors of P(x) are x+3 and x-5. Can


you be certain that P(x) = x2-2x-15?
Why?
ANSWER:
By using FOIL METHOD

(x+3) (x-5)

X2=5x+3x-15
X2-2x-15
- Is x+2 a factor of P(x) = x3-3x2-4x+12? If
so what are the factors of P(x)? How
can you find them?

ANSWER:
P(-2) =x3-3x2-4x+12
= (-2)3-3(-2)2-4(-2)+12
= -8-12+8+12
= -20+20
=0
- The polynomial x3-2mx2+3x+m is
exactly divisible by x-2. What is m
and explain. How you will find it?

ANSWER
x3-2mx2+3x+m=0; x-2
= (2)3-2m(2)2+3(2)+m=0
= 8-8m+6+m=0
= -8m+m= -8-6
-7m/-7 = -14/7
M=2
- One of the factors of kx3+3x2-
2ky+1 is x+1 Find K. Find K

ANSWER:
=kx3+2x2-2kx+1; x+1=0
=k(-1)3+(-1)2-2k(-1)+1=0
-k+3+2k+1=0
-k+2k= -1-3
K= -4
- The polynomial 3x4-2x3+x2 k is
divisible by x+1 Find k

ANSWER:
= -3x4-2x3+x2-k; x+1
= 3(-1)4-2(-1)3+(-1)2-k=0
= 3(-1)-2(-1)+(-1)-k=0
-k= -3-2-1
-k/-1 = -6/-1
K=6
