Respuesta :
The given polynomial is f(x) = x3- 9x2 + 26 x -24. if the one root is equal to 2, then we can determine the other roots by synthetic division:
2 | 1 -9 26 -24
2 -14 24
1 -7 12 0
x2 -7x + 12 = (x-3)(x-4)
as a correction, we used root of -2 to determine the other roots. the other roots then are 3 and 4.

Remainder theorem of polynomial
Given the given polynomial function g(x) = x³- 9x² + 26 x -24. if the one root is equal to 2, then we can determine the other roots by synthetic division:
q(x) = g(x)/d(x)
q(x) = x³- 9x² + 26 x -24/x - 2
q(x) = x² -7x + 12
Factorize the result to have:
x² -7x + 12 = 0
x² -4x - 3x + 12 = 0
x(x-4)-3(x-4) = 0
(x-3)(x-4) = 0
x = 3 and 4
Hence the roots of the equation will be 2, 3 and 4
