Odd polynomial integration (Posted on 2024-10-13) Difficulty: 3 of 5
Let p(x) be a fifth degree polynomial with real coefficients such that p(x)+1 is divisible by (x-1)3 and p(x)-1 is divisible by (x+1)3. Find the value of ∫p(x)dx from -10 to 10.

If p(x)=0 then p(x)+1 isn't divisible by (x-1)^3


I am having trouble with this one too, but I agree it appears p(x) may be have to be an odd polynomial.
