Answer:
No, (2x+3) is not the factor of polynomial (2x^3-x-6).
Step-by-step explanation:
We have given;
Polynomial : 2x^3-x-6;
Expression : 2x+3
Now, the zero of polynomial, for the expression 2x+3, will be;
= 2x+3 = 0;
= 2x = -3;
= x = -3/2;
Now, place it in the polynomial, in the place of the variable. If the outcome turns out to be 0 then the expression will be the polynomial's factor.
= 2( -3/2)^3-( -3/2)-6;
= -54/8 + 3/2 - 6;
= - 90/8;
Since, the outcome is - 90/8 not 0, hence (2x+3) is not the factor of the given polynomial.
That's all.
