Given:
The expression is:

It leaves the same remainder when divided by x -2 or by x+1.
To prove:

Solution:
Remainder theorem: If a polynomial P(x) is divided by (x-c), thent he remainder is P(c).
Let the given polynomial is:

It leaves the same remainder when divided by x -2 or by x+1. By using remainder theorem, we can say that
...(i)
Substituting
in the given polynomial.


Substituting
in the given polynomial.



Now, substitute the values of P(2) and P(-1) in (i), we get




Divide both sides by 3.


Hence proved.
Answer:
B. x<27
Step-by-step explanation:
300-165=135
135/5=27
Let x is the first no. then the other no. will obviously be (x+1)
according to question,
(x+1)²- x²= 15
x² +2x+1 - x² = 15 ( using (a+b)²= a²+ b² + 2ab )
2x + 1 = 15
2x = 14
x = 7
hence numbers are x = 7 and x +1 = 7+1 = 8
also 8²-7² = 64-49 = 15
hence the numbers are 7 and 8
hope it helped
