Find a polynomial f(x) of degree 5 such that both of these properties hold:

 f(x) is divisible by x^3

 f(x)+2 is divisible by (x+1)^3

 

Findapolynomial$f(x)$ofdegree$5$suchthatbothofthesepropertieshold:$$$f(x)$isdivisibleby$x3$.$$$f(x)+2$isdivisibleby$(x+1)3$

no that one is -1 but this one +2 very similar

f(x)+2=ax^+bx^4+cx^3+2=(x^3+3x^2+3x+1)(dx^2+ex+f) (my head hurts)

 

If you multiply it out, you get these "variables"

 

a=d, b=e+3d, c=f+3e+3d, d+3e+3f=0, e+3f=0, f=2

 

Solve for abcdef

 

f(x)=ax^5+bx^4+cx^3

 

Yay!
