Question

check wether x-1 is factor of x3 -6x2-2x-5or not
​

Answer 1

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

x-1) x^3 -6x^2 -2x-5(x^2 -5x

x^3 -x^2

-5x^2 -2x-5

-5x^2 +5x-5

-7x+0

Note while subtracting we have to interchange the below sign so I got for example -5x^2

Therefore x-1 is not the factor of x^2-6x^2-2x-5
