A(x - 1)

B(x - 10)

C(x - 5)

D(x - 12)

Solution

Given -

polynomial p(x) = x³ - 23x² + 142x - 120

Now see the coefficients

coefficient of x³ is 1 x² is -23 x is 142 and then -120

when you'll add this coefficients

i.e.

1-23+142-120=0

When sum of the coefficient turn out 0 then x = 1

using x=1, x-1 = 0

devide the given polynomial p(x) = x³ - 23x² + 142x - 120 by x-1 you'll get rest two factors hence

Answer is option C

i did it myself and i got 4.2 (b) hope its right
