Question

If a polynomial p(x) is divided by (x+a) then the remainder is ........ where 'a' is a real number
​

Answer 1

Answer:

According to remainder theorem: Let p(x) be any polynomial of degree greater than or equal to one and is divided by the linear polynomial x-a where a be any number which would be the divisor and we get the value of x = a, then the remainder is p (a). Factor theorem is a special case for the remainder theorem.
