If (x + 6) is a factor of x² - x + p, then what is the value of 'p'?
x + 6 = 0
x = -6 (By factor theorem)
Substituting the value of 'x' in the given polynomial.
(-6)² - (-6) + p = 0
36 + 6 + p = 0
42 + p = 0
p = -42
Hope this helps uh! ♡

Answer :-
→ x + 6 = 0
→ x = -6 (By factor theorem)
- Substituting the value of 'x' in the given polynomial.
↝(-6)² - (-6) + p = 0
↝36 + 6 + p = 0
↝42 + p = 0
↝p = -42 Ans.
