Can some body seriously help me on this question im really confused and i will mark brainliest!!!1

Joshua wants to know if xβˆ’5 is a factor of the polynomial P(x)=x^3βˆ’5x^2βˆ’x+5. Joshua calculates P(5) and applies the Factor Theorem to conclude that xβˆ’5 is not a factor of P(x).

Is Josh's conclusion that xβˆ’5 is not a factor correct? Why or why not?

a. No, the remainder is 0, therefore xβˆ’5 is a factor of P(x).

b. Yes, the remainder is 0, therefore xβˆ’5 is not a factor of P(x).

c. Yes, the remainder is βˆ’240, therefore xβˆ’5 is not a factor of P(x).

d. No, the remainder is βˆ’240, therefore xβˆ’5 is a factor of P(x).
