We don't need to divide since there is 'remainder theorem' here.
If we use division algorithm here, we have
q(x)=r(x)Q(x)+R
"Since r(x) is linear, remainder is a constant. Therefore R is a constant."
We found out that no matter the value we put in, R doesn't change.
So we put in -1/2 (α here) as the value of x in order to make r(α)=0
q(α)=0Q(α)+R
∴q(α)=R
q(-1/2)=R
Since it has a remainder of -2, r(x) doesn't divide q(x).
Therefore, it is not a multiple.
