 Σcoefficient = 0, so x−1 is one of   factor this polynome.          1      0       0        0     0     −56     55  1      ∗     1       1         1     1         1    −55         _________________________           1     1       1        1      1       −55    0  then p(x) = (x−1)(x^5 +x^4 +x^3 +x^2 +x−55)

So, what′s next? How do you get the  other factors?

p(x)=(x−1)(x^2 −x+5)(x^3 +2x^2 −2x−11)
p(x)=(x1)(x2x+5)(x3+2x22x11)

Using division algorithm for two  polynomials we obtain:  x^6 −56x+55=(x^2 −x+5)(x^4 +x^3 +4x^2 −9x+11)  x^6 −56x+55=(x−1)(x^5 +x^4 +x^3 +x^2 +x−55)  x^6 −56x+55=(x^3 +2x^2 −2x−11)(x^3 −2x^2 +6x−5)  From above result we see that all given  polynomials are factors of  x^6 −56x+55
Usingdivisionalgorithmfortwopolynomialsweobtain:x656x+55=(x2x+5)(x4+x3+4x29x+11)x656x+55=(x1)(x5+x4+x3+x2+x55)x656x+55=(x3+2x22x11)(x32x2+6x5)Fromaboveresultweseethatallgivenpolynomialsarefactorsofx656x+55

Not all !  x^6 −56x+55=(x^2 −x+5)(x^4 +x^3 −4x^2 −9x+11)  so D is not a factor
Notall!x656x+55=(x2x+5)(x4+x34x29x+11)soDisnotafactor
