Answer:
(x+5) is not a factor of f(x)
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 : we solve the equation x +5 = 0
x + 5 = 0 then x = -5
Step 2: we plug in -5 into f(x)
If we get zero then x+5 is a factor of f(x)
If we get a number other than zero then x+5 is not a factor of f(x)
Calculation:
f(-5) = (-5)³ − 4(-5)² + 3(-5) + 7 = - 233
Since we got -233 and not 0
Therefore ,(x+5) is not a factor of f(x)
