Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine which of the following polynomials has (x + 1) a factor:

(i) x3+x2+x+1

Solution:

Let p(x) = x3+x2+x+1

The zero of x+1 is -1. [x+1 = 0 means x = -1]

p(−1) = (−1)3+(−1)2+(−1)+1

= −1+1−1+1

= 0

∴By factor theorem, x+1 is a factor of x3+x2+x+1

(ii) x4+x3+x2+x+1

Solution:

Let p(x)= x4+x3+x2+x+1

The zero of x+1 is -1. . [x+1= 0 means x = -1]

p(−1) = (−1)4+(−1)3+(−1)2+(−1)+1

= 1−1+1−1+1

= 1 ≠ 0

∴By factor theorem, x+1 is not a factor of x4 + x3 + x2 + x + 1

(iii) x4+3x3+3x2+x+1

Solution:

Let p(x)= x4+3x3+3x2+x+1

The zero of x+1 is -1.

p(−1)=(−1)4+3(−1)3+3(−1)2+(−1)+1

=1−3+3−1+1

=1 ≠ 0

∴By factor theorem, x+1 is not a factor of x4+3x3+3x2+x+1

(iv) x3 – x2– (2+√2)x +√2

Solution:

Let p(x) = x3–x2–(2+√2)x +√2

The zero of x+1 is -1.

p(−1) = (-1)3–(-1)2–(2+√2)(-1) + √2 = −1−1+2+√2+√2

= 2√2 ≠ 0

∴By factor theorem, x+1 is not a factor of x3–x2–(2+√2)x +√2
