A moderator mentioned my answer had a mistake: turned out the question posted was incomplete. The complete question should read:

"

What must be a factor of the polynomial function f(x) graphed on the coordinate plane below?

x – 6

x – 3

x + 1

x + 6

"

As shown in the same graph, f(x) cross the x-axis at x = -6, -3 and 0.

When a polynomial crosses the x-axis at x = a, (x - a) must be a factor.

So (x + 6), (x + 3) and x are factors of f(x).

Of the options, the correct answer is x + 6.

Answer 2

First let's check for zeros

Mark the x intercepts

• -6,-3,0

The factors are

• x+6
• x+3
• x
