Use the Factor Theorem to determine whether is a factor of the following function. Write in the form
if ;
We must insert a +
-2|-4 5 0 8
| 8 -26 52
-4 13 -26 60
No is not a factor or the 60 remainder would have been a 0.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Suppose the problem has been instead:
;
We must insert a +
2|-4 5 0 12
| -8 -6 -12
-4 -3 -6 0
is a factor because the remainder is 0.
To write it in the form
