Polynomials and Factors
Not what you're looking for?
Give an example of a polynomial with degree 3 such that when factored, it contains the two factors (x+5) and (2x-1), i.e., the polynomial looks like (x+5)(2x-1)(?). How many such polynomials you think there are? What if I add the constraint that the value of this polynomial is zero when the variable x is equal to 1, how many such polynomials can you find?
