The polynomial p(x) is given by p(x) = x^3 – 5x^2 – 8x + 48 (a) (i) Use the Factor Theorem to show that x + 3 is a factor of p(x). [2 marks] (ii) Express p(x) as a product of three linear factors. [3 marks]

(a) (i) Use the Factor Theorem to show that x + 3 is a factor of p(x).

The Factor Theorem is derived from the remainder theorem. We know from the remainder theorem that by doing p(x)/(x – a) then w...
