Using the Factor theorem, show that
(i) (x-2) is a factor of `x^(3)-2x^(2)-9x+18`.
Hence factorise the expression `x^2-2x^2-9x+18` completely.
(ii) (x+5) is a factor of `2x^3+5x^2-28x-15`. Hence factorise the expression
`2x^3+5x^2-28x-15` completely.
(iii) (3x+2) is a factor of `3x^(3)+2x^(2)-3x-2`. Hence factorise the expression
`3x^3+2x^2-3x-2` completely.
