Two students, Claude and Diane, were asked to use synthetic division and the Remainder Theorem to find the value of f(2) given f(x)=2x^3+5xβˆ’6. Their work is shown here.

Claude's Work 2βˆ’βˆ’|220445813βˆ’626|20

Diane's Work 2βˆ’βˆ’|220βˆ’4βˆ’45813βˆ’6βˆ’26|βˆ’32

Part A: Which student correctly used synthetic division to find f(2)?

Part B: What is the value of f(2)?

Part C: Is xβˆ’2 a factor of 2x3+5xβˆ’6? In other words, is x=2 a zero of f(x)?

Part D: What are all the methods that can be used to find out if xβˆ’2 is a factor of 2x3+5xβˆ’6?
