You can put this solution on YOUR website! use the factor theorem to find a polynomial which is not a factor of f(x)=3x^4-5x^3-35x^2+25x+12. (x-4)(x-1)(x+3)(3x-2)
---------------------------------------
Using synthetic division:
2 )3....-5....-35....25....12
.....3.....1....-33....-41..|..-70
================
Since the Remainder is not zero,
x-2 is not factor of f(x);
3x^3 +x^2-33x-41 is not a factor of f(x)
