Answer:

(x + 8)(x - 2)(4x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that x = - 8 is a zero then (x + 8) is a factor

Divide f(x) by (x + 8) using Synthetic division

- 8 | 4    23    - 70    16

        ↓  - 32      72   - 16

      ---------------------------------

        4    - 9       2       0

Quotient = 4x² - 9x + 2 = (x - 2)(4x - 1)

Thus

f(x) = (x + 8)(x - 2)(4x - 1)
