Question

How many possible solutions could f(x) = 6x^3 + 8x^2 - 7x -3 have?

Answer 1

( 3x + 1 ) × ( 2x^2 + 2x - 3 )

Explanation:

= 6x^3 + 2x^2 + 6x +2x - 9x - 3

= 2x^2 × ( 3x +1 ) + 2x × ( 3x + 1 ) - 3 ( 3x + 1 )

= ( 3x + 1 ) × ( 2x^2 + 2x - 3 )

Answer 2

3 possible solutions.


The reason is because of the degree, which is 3
