The polynomial p(x) = x⁴ - 2x³ + 3x² - ax + b when divided by (x - 1) and (x + 1) leaves the remainders 5 and 19 respectively. Find the values of a and b. Hence find the remainder when p(x) is divided by (x - 2)
- Remainder theorem
- Linear equation in double variable
Remainder Theorem:
When p(x) is divided by (x - a), then p(a) is the remainder.
Here,
p(x) = x⁴ - 2x³ + 3x² - ax + b
Dividing by (x - 1)
Here, p(x) is divided by (x - 1) a is 1. Hence remainder is p(1)
Value of p(1)
p(1) = 1⁴ - (2 * 1³) + (3 * 1²) - (a * 1) + b
p(1) = 1 - 2 + 3 - a + b
p(1) = 2 + b - a --------->Remainder
It is given that remainder is 5. So,
2 + b - a = 5
---------(1)
Dividing by (x - 1)
Here, p(x) is divided by {x - (-1) } a is -1. Hence remainder is p(-1)
Value of p(-1)
p(-1) = (-1)⁴ - (2 * -1)³ + (3 * -1)² - (a * -1) + b
p(-1) = 1 + 2 + 3 + a + b
p(-1) = 6 + a + b --------->Remainder
It is given that the value of remainder is 19
6 + a + b = 19
--------(2)
- b - a = 3
- b + a = 13
Adding (1) and (2)
Finding b:
b - a +b + a = 3 + 13
2b = 16
b = 16/2 = 8
Finding a:
b - a = 3
8 - a = 3
a = 5
p(x) = x⁴ - 2x³ + 3x² - 5x + 8
Remainder when p(x) is divided by (x - 2)
Here, p(x) is divided by {x - 2 } a is 2. Hence remainder is p(2)
p(2) = 2⁴- (2 * 2³) + (3 * 2²) - (5 * 2) + 8
p(2) = 16 - 16 + 12 - 10 + 8
p(2) = 10
