Well let's see....I can think of three

 

1.   x = 2  is a root

 

2.  x - 2 is a factor

 

3.  The remainder  when 2 is subbed into the polynomial  =   0

Thanks, CPhill! I feel like I post too much on this forum but it helps me to learn and understand the problem. You get solutions but it's kinda like tutoring.

Thinking in graphical terms, I suppose that the final characteristic of this mystery polynomial would be that \((2,0)\) is an x-intercept.
