Q:
If x = 1 is a zero of the polynomial function f(x) = 3x3 − 8x2 + 3x + 2, which of the following is another zero of f(x)? x = 2 x = −2 x = −1 x = 3
Accepted Solution
A:
divide 3x^3 -8x^2+3x + 2 by (x - 1)
THis gives the quotient 3x^2 - 5x - 2
3x^2 - 5x - 2 = (3x + 1)(x - 2 )
so x = 2 is another root
Its the first choice
