One of the factors of the polynomial x3 − 5x2 is x + 3. what is the other factor?

a. x2-8x+24+(72/x+3)
b. x2-8x+24
c. x2-8x+24-(72/x+3)
d. x3-8x2+24x-72

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given polynomial : x³ - 5x²

Factors of given polynomial = x + 3

Let, p(x) = x³ - 5x²

To get other factor of p(x), we divide p(x) by given factor.

On division we get,

Quotient = x² - 8x + 24

Remainder = -72

So another factor is

Therefore, Option C is correct.
