the function should be x^3+3x^2+6x+4
the factors should be (x+1), given, and x^2+2x+4

You can put this solution on YOUR website! .
if x+1 is a factor of x^3+3x^2+kx+4, find the value of k.
-----------------------------------------------------------
If x+1 is a factor of , then x = -1 is the root of this polynomial.
It means that if we substitute -1 instead of x into the polynomial, we get 0:
