⏩ Dertermine (x+1) is a factor of x⁴ + 3x³ + 3x² + x + 1.
✒ (x+1) is not the factor of x⁴+3x³+3x²+x+1.
Given, x⁴+3x³+3x²+x+1
Let p(x)= x⁴+3x³+3x²+x+1
The zero of x+1 is -1.
On putting x= -1
p(−1)=(−1)⁴+3(−1)³+3(−1)²+(−1)+1
=1−3+3−1+1
=1≠0
Hence,by factor theorem, x+1 is not a factor of x⁴+3x³+3x²+x+1
