Determine whether

Solution
Given,
p
(
x
)
=
2
x
4
+
x
3
+
4
x
2
−
x
−
7
.
By Remainder Theorem, we know,
if
p
(
x
)
=
2
x
4
+
x
3
+
4
x
2
−
x
−
7
is divided by
x
+
2
, then the remainder obtained is
p
(
−
2
)
.
That is,
p
(
−
2
)
=
2
(
−

)

(

=

=

≠
0
.
Since,
p
(
2
)
≠
0
, we can say that
x
+
2
is not a factor of
2
x
4
+
x
3
+
4
x
2
−
x
−
7
.
