Given that x = 2 is a zero of the polynomial P(x) = x³ - 4x² + x + 6, find the other zeros.

A x = -1, x = 3
B x = 1, x = -3
C x = -2, x = 3
D x = 2, x = -3

✓ Correct Answer: Option A

Use synthetic division with 2 to divide P(x), resulting in x² - 2x - 3. Factor this quadratic: (x - 3)(x + 1) = 0. So, the other zeros are x = 3 and x = -1.
