x4 - 1.We can not "solve" this as we have not been told the value of x. However, we can simplify this expression:We have an x and a minus x here which will cancel out. Likewise the x2 and x3 will cancel out with the -x2 and -x3 respectively. This therefore leaves us with just x4 - 1.
x3 + x2 - 6x + 4 = (x - 1)(x2 + 2x - 4)
(x - 1)(x2 + x - 1)
x3 - 7x2 + 6x = x(x2 - 7x + 6) = x(x2 - x - 6x + 6) = x[x(x - 1) - 6(x - 1)] = x2(x - 1) - 6x(x - 1) = (x2 - 6x)(x - 1)
It is a polynomial of the fourth degree in X.
