Question

if (x-1) is a factor of p(x)=x^2+x+k then the value of k is​

Answer 1

Answer:

-2 is the correct value of k

Answer 2

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

here ,

Let the value of x be 1. ( x-1= o, x=1)

then ,

p(x)= x^2+x+k

p(1)=(1)^2+1+k

= 1+1+k

= 2+k

-k = 2 ( here we have move k on the left

k. = 2*-1 hand side )

k = -2

SO ,-2 IS THE CORRECT ANSWER
