Question 595715: Given a polynomail and one of its factors, find the remaining factors of the polynomial. Some factors may not be binomials.
X^3+2X^2-33X-90 ; X+5

To find the other factors we start by dividing by the known factor, x+5. I prefer synthetic division over long division:
-5 |   1   2   -33   -90
---       -5    15    90
     --------------------
       1  -3   -18     0

The remainder, in the lower right corner, is zero. This is to be expected when x+5 was supposed to be a factor. The other factor is found in the front of the remainder: 1 -3 -18. This translates into . Now we just factor that:


So your expression, fully factored, is:
