Question

Check whether the first polynomial is a factor of second polynomial:-
x-3, 8x²-18x+9

Answer 1

No, it's not a factor of the first polynomial

Answer 2

let x=3 now p(x)=8x^2-18x+9 now p(3) = 8(3)^2-18×3+9 now p(3) =8×9-54+9 now p(3)= 72-54+9 now p(3)= 81-54 that is 27 no it is not the factor of the polynomial
