determine the remainder when the polynomial p(x)=x^4-3x^2+2x+1 is divided by (x-1)
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
p(x)=x⁴-3x²+2x+1
g(x)=x-1
p(1)=(1)⁴-3*(1)²+2*1+1
=1-3+2+1
=-2+3
=1

The remainder obtained on dividing p(x) = -3x²+2x+1 by (x-1) is 1.
Given:
p(x)=-3x²+2x+1
To Find:
The remainder obtained on dividing the polynomial p(x) by (x-1).
Solution:
We can solve this problem using the long division method.
Step 1: Since the polynomial is of degree 4, we will re-write it to include all powers of x ≤ 4.
⇒ p(x) = +0x³-3x²+2x+1
Step 2: p(x) = (x - 1)(x³) + (x³- 3x² + 2x + 1)
Step 3: p(x) = (x - 1)(x³+x²) + (-2x²+2x+1)
Step 3: p(x) = (x - 1)(x³+x²-2x) +1
We know that
Dividend = Divisor x Quotient + Remainder
Here
Dividend = p(x) = -3x²+2x+1
Divisor = (x - 1)
Quotient = (x³+x²-2x)
Remainder = 1
∴ The remainder when p(x) = -3x²+2x+1 is divided by (x-1) is 1.
