Answer:

The answer is option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

x³ + 6x² + 5x - 12

A factor of the polynomial is the value of x when substituted into the expression will make it zero

Choosing x + 4

x = - 4

We have

(- 4)³ + 6(- 4)² + 5(- 4) - 12

-64 + 96 - 20 - 12 = 0

Since the result is zero

x + 4 is a factor of the polynomial

Hope this helps you
