Question

Find the value of m , if x – 1 is a factor of p(x) = x2 + x + m​

Answer 1

Answer:

m=(-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, p(x)=x^2+x+m

if x-1 is a factor of p(x), then

p(1)=0

p(1)=1^2+1+m=0 (Replacing x by 1 in p(x))

1×1+1+m=0

2+m=0

m=-2

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that,

x-1=p(1)

=1(2)+1+m

=3+m

m=-3
