The value of f(10) using synthetic division is 396.
Explanation:
Cubic polynomials cannot be factorized by splitting the middle term. Quadratic polynomials can be factorized by splitting the middle term.
A cubic polynomial can have a maximum of three linear factors. To factorize a cubic polynomial, we first find a factor by hit and trial method or using factor theorem and reduce it into the product of a quadratic polynomial and a linear polynomial. The quadratic polynomial can then be factorized in linear factors.
