Use the factor theorem to determine whether (x-3) is a factor of

\n" ); document.write( "-------------
\n" ); document.write( "Using synthetic division:

\n" ); document.write( ".......1.....15...45...141...|..450\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Since f(3) is not zero x-3 is not a factor of f(x).
