Question

Which polynomial has a factor of 3x+2?

1.) 6x²+x-2
2.) 6x²-5x-9
3.) 3x²-x-4
4.) 3x²+8x-8

Answer 1

The answer is #1

You can factor 6x+x-2 in many ways-

But the right answer from factoring should come out to be (3x+2)(2x-1) because when you multiply it back out using the FOIL method, you come back to the original problem. Hope this helps:)

Answer 2

The polynomial that has a factor of 3x + 2 is 1.) 6x^2+x-2
