Given polynomial: x²-2x-15
Therefore,
Let f(x) = x2–2x–15,
(x+ k) is a factor of the polynomial x2–2x–15
⇒ f(-k) = 0
⇒ f(-k) = (-k)2–2(-k) –15 = 0
⇒ k2+ 2k –15 = 0
⇒ (k + 5)(k - 3) = 0
⇒ k = -5 or 3.
Other given polynomial: x³+a
Therefore,
Let f(x) = x3+ a,
(x + k) is a factor of the polynomial x3+ a
⇒ (x + 3) is a factor of the polynomial x3+ a
⇒ f(-3) = 0
⇒ (-3)3+ a = 0
⇒ -27 + a = 0
⇒ a = 27
OR
⇒ (x - 5) is a factor of the polynomial x3+ a
⇒ f(5) = 0
⇒ (5)3+ a = 0
⇒ 125 + a = 0
⇒ a = -125.
☆ K= -5 or 3
☆ a= 27 or -125
