17. Is x + 2 a factor of the polynomial f(x) = 2x²-3x²-4x+1? O f(-2) = 0, so (x + 2) is a factor. O f(2)= 0, so (x + 2) is a factor. O f(-2) = 29, so (x + 2) is not a factor. ƒ(2) = 13, so (x + 2) is not a factor.

17. Is x + 2 a factor of the polynomial f(x) = 2x²-3x²-4x+1?
O f(-2) = 0, so (x + 2) is a factor.
O f(2)= 0, so (x + 2) is a factor.
O f(-2)=29, so (x + 2) is not a factor.
ƒ(2) = 13, so (x + 2) is not a factor.
