Answer :
Lets assume that x+4 is a factor
x=-4
f(-4)=-64+48+20+36=-64+ 104≠0
hence its a contradiction.
so x+4 is not a factor.

Answer:
It is not a factor
Step-by-step explanation:
Equate (x+4) to 0
x+4 = 0
x = -4
now, substitute the value of x into the equation
[tex](-4^{3} ) + 3(-4^{2} ) - 5x + 36[/tex]
Now we simplify
[tex]-64 + 48 + 20 + 36[/tex]
The answer is [tex]40[/tex].
Therefore [tex](x+4)[/tex] is not a factor of [tex]x^{3} + 3x^{2} + 5x + 36[/tex] because it has a remainder.
