How could you determine    if x-2 is a factor of 2x³-5x²+x-2?

• Use synthetic division and see if the quotient is even
• Ask the person sitting next to me
• Use synthetic division and see if the remainder is zero
• Flip a coin

            Is (x-2) a factor of             f(x)= x³-8x²+14x-4?

• Yes, (x-2) is a factor. There is a remainder.
• No, (x-2) is  not a factor. The remainder is zero.
• Yes, (x-2) is a factor. The remainder is zero.
• No, (x-2) is  not a factor. There is a remainder.
