Question

Can you help me with this please

Answer 1

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

If (x+5) is a factor of p(x), then the value x=-5 will make that factor be zero. The product p(x) of which it is a part will also be zero, so p(-5) = 0.

Since p(-5) = 0 at x=-5, there will be an x-intercept at x=-5.

Dividing something by a factor of that thing will always give a remainder of zero. So, p(x)/(x+5) has a remainder of 0.
