Answer:

the highest common factor of the polynomial is (x + 2) (x - 3)

Explanation:

The computation of the highest common factor of the polynomial is as follows:

According to the question, the following equation is given

'
x^2 - x - 6

Now do the factorization


x^2 -3x + 2x - 6

x(x - 3) +2 (x - 3)

(x + 2) (x - 3)

hence, the highest common factor of the polynomial is (x + 2) (x - 3)

The same is to be considered
