Possible Rational Roots are : ±1 , ± 1 , ±19 , ± 19 , ±19
±2 ±1 ±2 ±4
Polynomial has root of X=1 if and only if Polynomial is divisible by X-1
Do the long division to determine that:
4X 5 +4X4-60X3-59X2 +59X- 59 -59X2- 19
X - 1 l 4X6- 64X4+X3- 19 -59X2 -59X
4X6 -4X5 -59X -19
4X5- 64 X4 - -59x +59
4X 5- 4 X4 -78
-60X4+X3 f(X) = (X-1) (4X5 +4X4 -60X3-59X2 +59X -59
-60X4+60X3 then f(1) = -78 the remainder.
-59X3- 19
59X3-59X2 f(1) = 4(1)6- 64(1)4+ (1)3 -19 =-78
