Answer:
p(x)=x⁴-2x^3+3x²-ax+3a-7 is divided by (x+1)
then the remainder is p(-1),[since,(x+1)=0,Or, x=(-1)]
now,the remainder is 19.
so, p(-1)=19
Or, (-1)⁴-2(-1)^3+4(-1)²-a(-1)+3a-7=19
Or, 1+2+4+a+3a=19+7
Or, 4a=26-7=19
Or, a=19/4
[I think you mistakenly write 2x^2 in the equation.if not then please comment.i will solve it again]
