(x - 2) is not a factor of p(x).

Step-by-step explanation:

p(x) = 3x^{4} - 4x^{2} + 8x - 1

We have to check (x - 2) is a factor of p(x).

We plug x = 2 in p(x),

p(2) = 3(2)^{4} - 4(2)^{2} + 8(2) - 1

p(2) = 48  - 16 + 16 - 1 = 47

Here p(2) ≠ 0

Hence, (x - 2) is not a factor of p(x).

{p(x)} = {3x}^{4} - {4x}^{2} + {8x} - {1}

(x-2)=0

x=2

Putting x = 2 in p(x):-

{p(2)} = {3}×{2}^{4} - {4}×{2}^{2} + {8}{2} - {1}

{p(2)} = {48} - {16} + {16} - {1}

{p(2)} = {47}

Since, p(2) ≠ 0

(x-2) is not a factor.
