Answer:
a=1 and b=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = ax^2+bx+c
it is exactly divisible be (x-1) and (x-2)
thus they r the factors
so f(x)= k (x-1)(x-2) ....where k is a constant
now when f(x) is divided by (x+1) it leaves remainder 6
thus by remainder theorem
f(-1)= 6
plug it in the eq above
k (-2)(-3)= 6
6k= 6
k=1
thus f(x) = (x-1)(x-2)
f(x) = x^2-3x+2
thus a=1 and b=-3
