Factor
x² -16x + 48

• (x - 12)(x - 4)

• (x + 6)(x - 8)

• (x + 12)(x - 4)

• (x -16)(x - 3)

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
