Factors of the polynomial $2x^3 + x^2 - 7x - 6$ are:

Correct Answer: (A) x+1, x-2 and 2x+3

To find the factors of polynomial $\text{P}$(x) = 2x^3 + x^2 - 7x - 6, we can test the roots using the factor theorem. Testing x = -1, x = 2, and x = -3/2 yields zero remainders, confirming that the linear factors are (x+1), (x-2), and (2x+3).
