To identify the factors of the polynomial
, we can use synthetic division to test each given factor and see if it results in a remainder of zero.Let's start with
:1. Rewrite
as \(x - (-2)\).2. Set up synthetic division with
as the divisor.
The remainder is 252, so
is not a factor.Next, let's try
:1. Set up synthetic division with
as the divisor.
The remainder is 22, so
is not a factor.Next, let's try
:1. Rewrite
as \(x - (-8)\).2. Set up synthetic division with
as the divisor.
The remainder is 0, so
is a factor.Now that we have identified
as a factor, we can use it to find the quotient polynomial. The quotient polynomial is
.So, the missing factor is
.
