check wheather (x+3) is a factor of F(x) =x³-3x²+4x +50.
Answers
Given:
f (x) = x³- 3x² + 4x + 50.
g(x) = x-3.
To find: g(x) is a fator of f(x) or not.
g(x) = x-3 =0
=> x=3.
According to factor theorem, If f(x)=0 then g(x) is a factor of f(x).
f (x) = x³- 3x² + 4x + 50
i.e., f(3)= 3³-3×3²+4×3+50
=> 27-27+12+50
=> 62 ≠0
No. g(x) is not a factor of f(x).
Answer:
Here is your answer
Step-by-step explanation:
As the degree of f(x) = 3 that means there will be 3 factors of f(x).
Now , to check x+3 is one of those 3 factors of f(x) or not we have to constitute the value of x first,
x + 3 = 0
x = -3
Now in order to check whether x+3 is a factor of f(x) or not put the value of x in the polynomial f(x)
f(x) = x³- 3x² - 4x + 50
so, f( -3) = (-3)³ - (4 × -3 ) + 50
= -27 + 12 +50
= 35
as 35 is not equal to 0 we can conclude that x+ 3 is not a factor of polynomial f(x).
