    The answer to your question is below

    Step-by-step explanation:

    *A (x) = 3x³ + 2x² - x This polynomial is not divisible by (x - 1)

    Factor completely 3x (x + 1) (3x - 1)

    *B (x) = 5x³ - 4x² - x This polynomial is divisible by (x - 1)

    factor completely 3x (x - 1) (5x + 1)

    *C (x) = 2x³ - 3x² + 2x - 1 This polynomial is divisible by (x - 1)

    Synthetic division 2 - 3 + 2 - 1 1

    2 - 1 1

    2 - 1 1 0

    *D (x) = x³ + 2x² + 3x + 2 This polynomial is not divisible by (x - 1)

    Synthetic division 1 2 3 2 1

    1 3 6

    1 3 6 8
