Answer:
Option c 1 is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we have x+2
So,we know p(x) = 0
So,x+2 = 0
Therefore x = - 2
Now, p(x) = x^3-2ax^2+16
p(-2) = (-2)^3-2a(-2)^2+16
(-8)-2a(4)+16 = 0 {as p(x) = 0}
-8 -8a = - 16
-8a = - 16+8
-8a = - 8
a = - 8/-8
Therefore, a= 1
HOPE IT HELPS YOU

Given:
- There is a polynomial x³-2ax²+16.
- x+2 is a factor of x³-2ax²+16.
To Find:
- The value of a .
Concept Used:
- We will use 'Factor Theorem ' to find out the value of a .
Answer:
We have been given a polynomial which is x³-2ax²+16. [say p(x)].
Let
- p(x)=x³-2ax²+16.
- g(x)=x-2.
Now ,
(x+2) is a factor of p(x).
So on equating f(x) with 0 ,
So, on putting (-2) in x p(x) will be 0.
Therefore the value of a is 1.
