Q:

Determine if x + 3 is a factor of -3[tex]x^{3}[/tex]+6[tex]x^{2}[/tex]+6x+9. How do you know? no, because the remainder is 126yes, because the remainder is 126no, because the remainder is –108yes, because the remainder is –108

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:Option Cno, because the remainder is 126Step-by-step explanation:Given the polynomial equation in the question -3x^{3}+6x^{2}+6x+9factor =  x + 3 (divisor)long division           -3x² + 15x - 39             Quotient           -------------------------------- x + 3|  -3x³ + 6x² + 6x + 9     Dividend         |  -3x³ - 9x²                    ----------------------                       15x² + 6x + 9                       15x² + 45x                       --------------------                                -39x + 9                                -39x - 117                                  -------------                                            126   ReminderSince reminder is not zero so (x + 3) is not factor of -3x³ + 6x² + 6x + 9.(x-3) is the factor of  -3x³ + 6x² + 6x + 9.
