Question

If the polynomial P(x) = 2x^4 + x^3 - 5x^2 - x + 1 is divided by the polynomial Q(x) = x^2 - x then the
remainder is a linear polynomial R(x) = ax + b. Then (a + b) equals
(a) -2
(B)-1
c.1
d.2​

Answer 1

Answer:

p(x)=2x4+x3-5x2-x+1=(x2-x)j +ax+b

x2=x

x=1

put the value

2+1-5-1=a+b

-2=a+b

Answer 2

My answer is also coming as the upper one . So please see the upper answer
