1.
2x² + 3√5x + 5
= 2x² + 2√5x + √5x + 5
= 2x(x + √5) + √5(x + √5)
= (x + √5) (2x + √5) <= ans
2.
The constant term in f(x) is are 1 and 2
putting x = 1 in f(x), we have
f(1) = (1)3 - 2(1)2 -1 + 2
= 1 - 2 - 1 + 2 = 0
According to remainder theorem f(1) = 0
so that,
(x - 1) is a factor of x3 - 2x2 - x + 2
Putting x = - 1 in f(x),
we have
f(-1) = (-1)3 - 2(-1)2
(-1) + 2
= -1 - 2 + 1 + 2 = 0
According to remainder theorem
f(-1) = 0
so that,
(x + 1) is a factor of x3 - 2x2 - x + 2
Putting x =2 in f(x),
we have
f(2) = (2)3 - 2(2)2
(2) + 2
= 8 -82 - 2 + 2 = 0
According to remainder theorem f(2) = 0
so that, (x = 2 ) is a factor of
x3 - 2x2 - x + 2
Here maximum power of x is 3 so that its can have maximum 3 factors
Here maximum power of x is 3 so that its can have maximum 3 factors So our answer is (x-1)(x+1)(x-2)
