Choose all the correct statements about the following polynomial function and x-value.
p(x) = 323 + 11x2 – 41 – 6
i =
-2
0
p(-2) = 22
if p(a) = 0, then there is a root at x = a.
358 + 1172 – 45 – 6 = 3x2 + 5x + 6 +
1 2
0
p(-2) = -66
the remainder theorem is used to determine if (x - a) is a factor of p(x) and if p(x) can
be factored.
o 33 +
303 + 11: 2 – 45 – 6 – 302 + 5x - 14 +
1 + 2
+ 2
since p(a) > 0, (x - a) is a factor of p(x).
