use the factor theorem to determine whether g (x) is the factor of p (x) in each of the following cases
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Ans.
(i) We know that according to the factor theorem,
We can conclude that g(x) is a factor of p(x), if p(-1)=0.
= 2+1-1-2 = 0
Therefore, we conclude that the g(x) is a factor of p(x).
(ii) We know that according to the factor theorem,
We can conclude that g(x) is a factor of p(x), if p(-2)=0.
= -8+12-6+1 = -1
Therefore, we conclude that the g(x) is not a factor of p(x).
(iii) We know that according to the factor theorem,
We can conclude that g(x) is a factor of p(x), if p(3)=0.
= 27-36+3+6 = 0
Therefore, we conclude that the g(x) is a factor of p(x).
Answer:
Put g(x) = 0
X+1=0
X= - 1
By remainder theorem
Remainder=p(-1)
P(x) =2x^3 +x^2 - 2x - 1
= 2× (-1)^3 + (-1)^2 - 2× - 1 +1
= 2× - 1 + 1 +2 +1
= - 2 +2+3
=3
I think it is right
