To determine which of the given polynomials has \( (x + 1) \) as a factor, we will use the Factor Theorem. According to the Factor Theorem, \( (x + 1) \) is a factor of a polynomial \( p(x) \) if and only if \( p(-1) = 0 \). We will evaluate each polynomial at \( x = -1 \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Evaluate the first polynomial:** \[ ...
