x-2 is a factor so x-2=0 x=2 substitute in that equation x^3-3x+5a=0
2^3-3×2+5a=0
8-6+5a=0
a=-2/5

HEY THERE!!


Question;-

if x -2 is a factor of x cube - 3x + 5a then value of a is:

Method of Solution;-

Given Polynomial;-

x³-3x+5a

Also, their Factor (x-2).

f(x)=x-2

x-2=0

•°• x=2

Now, solving the Factor of Polytechnic x³-3x+5a

Considering on Question!-

Substitute the value of x in Equation.
F(x)=x³-3x+5a=0

f(2)=(2)³-3(2)+5a=0

8-6+5a=0

2+5a=0

°•° 5a=-2

a=-2/5

Hence, value of x³-3x+5a ,a=-2/5
