Question

If x-1 is a factor of the polynomial 2x square-2a find a

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

If x-1 is factor then,

x-1=0

x=1

So, 1 is a factor of the p(x)=2x^2-2a

Put the value of x=1 in p(x)

p(1)=2(1)^2-2a=0

2-2a=0

2=2a

2/2=a

1=a

SO THE VALUE OF A IS 1

Answer 2

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

x-1

=x=-1

2xsq-2a

f(x)=2(-1)sq-2a

=2-2a

a= -2/-2

=1
