If \((2x^{2} – x – 3)\) is a factor of \(f(x) = 2x^{3} – 5x^{2} – x + 6\), find the other factor
-
(x - 2)
- (x - 1)
- (x + 1)
- (x + \(\frac{3}{2}\))
The correct answer is: A
Explanation
Divide \((2x^{3} - 5x^{2} - x + 6)\) by \((2x^{2} - x - 3)\) to get the other factor. Be careful of sign conventions.
