Since the remainder is zero, then x = 4 is indeed a zero of –2x5 + 6x4 + 10x3 – 6x2 – 9x + 4, so:
Yes, x – 4 is a factor of –2x5 + 6x4 + 10x3 – 6x2 – 9x + 4
Find all the factors of 15x4 + x3 – 52x2 + 20x + 16 by using synthetic division.
Remember that, if x = a is a zero, then x – a is a factor. So use the Rational Roots Test (and maybe a quick graph) to find a good value to test for a zero (x-intercept). I'll try x = 1:

I need help finding all the zeros for one of my many polynomials:
x^5-2x^4+3x^3-20x^2+0x-3
