Question

The remainder of the polynomial 5+6x+2x²+ax when divided by (x–2) is twice the remainder when it is divided by (x+1) show that 10a+4b=9

Answer 1

Answer:

It is given that the remainder of the polynomial P(x), when divided by x-2 is twice the remainder when it is divided by (x+1). Hence proved. A polynomial ax3 - 3x2 + 3x + 1 when divided by X-2 leaves the remainder 7.
