Use the Factor Theorem to determine whether g(x) is a factor of p(x) in the following case:
p(x) = 2x3 + x2 – 2x – 1, g(x) = x + 1

उत्तर
If g(x) = x + 1 is a factor of the given polynomial p(x), then p(−1) must be zero.
p(x) = 2x3 + x2 − 2x − 1
p(−1) = 2(−1)3 + (−1)2 − 2(−1) − 1
= 2(−1) + 1 + 2 − 1
= 0
Hence, g(x) = x + 1 is a factor of the given polynomial.
