Given : Polynomial x⁴+ax³ −7x ²−8x+b is exactly divisible
by (x+2) as well (x+3)
⇒x=−2,−3 are the roots of polynomial
∴(−2) ⁴+a(−2) ³−7(−2) ²−8(−2)+b=0
16−8a−28+16+b=0
−8a+b=−4 ... (I)
(−3) ⁴+a(−3) ³−7(−3)² −8(−3)+b=0
81−27a−63+24+b=0
−27+b=−42 .... (II)
(I) - (II)
a=2
put a=2 in equation (I)
−16+b=−4
b=−4+16
b=12
∴a=2,b=12
