using remainder theorem to find the value of k , it given that when x3 + 2x2 + kx + 3 is divided by ( x-3) , then the remainder is 21
Answers
The value of k is -9
Solution:-
Given,
f(x) = x³ + 2x² + kx + 3 when divided by the linear polynomial g(x) = (x - 3) gives the remainder 21.
At first we will find out zero of the polynomial g(x) = (x - 3)
=> (x - 3) = 0
=> x = 3
From the remainder thereom,
The required remainder = f(3)
Putting the value of x in f(x) :-
=> x³ + 2x² + kx + 3 = 21
=> (3)³ + 2.(3)² + k.3 + 3 = 21
=> 27 + 2.9 + 3k + 3 = 21
=> 27 + 18 + 3k + 3 = 21
=> 3k + 48 = 21
=> 3k = 21 - 48
=> 3k = -27
=> k = -27/3
=> k = -9
Hence, the value of k is -9.
Verification:-
L.H.S
x³ + 2x² + kx + 3
Putting the value of k and x, we get:-
=> (3)³ + 2.(3)² + (-9).3 + 3
=> 27 + 2.9 + (-27) + 3
=> 27 + 18 - 27 + 3
=> 21
R.H.S = Already, 21.
Therefore, L.H.S = R.H.S
Hence, Proved.
Proof :-
Reminder left = 3
Now,
Find zero of equation
x-3=0
x=3 ......(i)
Put value of x = 3 in the given equation
x³+2x²+kx+3= 21
(3)³+2 × (3)² + k(3) +3 = 21
27 + 2 × 9 + 3k + 3 = 21
27 + 18 + 3k + 3 = 21
3k + 48 = 21
3k = 21 - 48
3k = -27
k = -27/3
k = -9
