Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that polynomial (x4+ax3-7x2+8x+b) is exactly divisible by (x+2) as well as (x+3).
The two divisors in the question are (x + 2) and (x + 3). As it is given that the given polynomial is divisible by both these divisors, that means;
x + 2 = 0 and x + 3 = 0
x = -2 and x = -3 will make the remainder zero when these values of x are substituted in the given polynomial.
f(x) = . So, f(-2) and f(-3) will be equal to zero.
f(-2) =
f(-3) =
f(-2) =
= ---------------- [Equation 1]
f(-3) =
= ---------------- [Equation 2]
Now using the elimination method to find the values of a and b;
+ - + -
19a - 22 = 0
a =
Putting the value of a in equation 1 we get;
b =
b = .
Hence, the value of a = and the value of b = .[/tex]
