The polynomial P (x) = x3-9x2+12x-17 can be rewritten as P (x) = (x-8) (x2-x+4) + 15.

Is the binomial x-8 a factor of P (x) ? Why or why not?

No, because there is a remainder of 0 when P (x) is divided by x-8.

Yes, because there is a remainder of 0 when P (x) is divided by x-8.

No, because there is a remainder of is x2-x+4 when P (x) is divided by x-8.

No, because there is a remainder of 15 when P (x) is divided by x-8.
