Question analysis
This question asks us to find a factor of an expression. To do this, we need to play the guess-and-check game by substituting numbers into the expression to see which one gives us zero as a remainder. Remember, if the remainder equals zero that means the divisor is a factor. In other words, if \(x-a\) is a factor, \(P\left(a\right)=0\).
