Question

can (x-1) be the remainder on the division of a polynomial p(x) by (x+3)? justify your answer​

Answer 1

Answer:

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 x+3 it's degree is 1

it is wrong.

therefore

x-1 is not remainder of p(x)
