(x+2) is one of the factors of the polynomial x³+13x²+32x+20. Find its remaining factors.

A little help....​

Respuesta :

Answer:

x^2+11x+10

or

(x+1)(x+10) since you can factor x^2+11x+10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's do synthetic division.

We are dividing by x+2, so -2 will be on the outside. Like this:

-2 |         1          13          32         20

   |                     -2        -22         -20

   |___________________________

             1          11           10            0

The remainder is 0, so (x+2) is indeed a factor of x^3+13x^2+32x+20.

The other factor we found by doing this is (x^2+11x+10).

You can find more factors by factoring x^2+11x+10.

Two numbers that multiply to be 10 and add to be 11 is 10 and 1 so the factored form of x^2+11x+10 is (x+10)(x+1).
