Question

Can (x – 1) be the remainder on division of a polynomial p(x) by (x + 3)? Justify your answer.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

BY REMAINDER THEOREM:

degree of the remainder is less than the degree of divisor

but here

REMINDER = x-1, it's degree is 1

and divisor 2x+3 it's degree is 1 it is wrong.

therefore

x-1 is not remainder of p(x) ✓✓
