Correct question:
Factorise using the factor theorem:
x^3 + 6x^2 + 11x + 6.
Given:
- We have been given a cubic polynomial x^3 + 6x^2 + 11x + 6.
To Find:
- We need to find the factors of the given polynomial.
Solution:
Given f(x) = x^3 + 6x^2 + 11x + 6.
Putting the value of x as (-1) we have
f(-1) = (-1)^3 + 6(-1)^2 + 11(-1) + 6
= -1 + 6 - 11 + 6
= -12 + 12
= 0
Therefore, (x + 1) is a factor of x^3 + 6x^2 + 11x + 6.
Now, as we got (x + 1) as a factor of
x^3 + 6x^2 + 11x + 6, we need to divide this polynomial by (x+1).
[Division shown in attachment]
After dividing x^3 + 6x^2 + 11x + 6 by
(x + 1) we got quotient as x^2 + 5x + 6.
We can find the other factors by the method of splitting the middle term in
x^2 + 5x + 6.
So, we have
Hence the factors of x^3 + 6x^2 + 11x + 6 are (x + 1), (x + 2) and (x + 3).
