Find the value of k so that the remainder is -12 for (2x^4+ 4x^3-7x^2- kx +9)/(x-1).

1 answer:

5 0

First of all let x-1=0
x=1
Therefore,
P(x)=2x^4+4x^3-7x^2-kx+9
P(1)=2(1)^4+4(1)^3-7(1)^2-k(1)+9
2(1)+4(1)-7(1)-k+9=0
2+4-7-k+9=0
15-7-k=0
8-k=0
-k=-8
Therefore,k=8

Answer:

D = 141

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic equation is

$5x^2+9x=3\\\\5x^2+9x-3=0$ .

It is required to find the value of the discriminant. The value of discriminant of any quadratic equation is given by :

$D=b^2-4ac$

Here, a = 5, b = 9 and c = -3

On plugging all the values, we get :

$D=(9)^2-4\times 5\times (-3)\\\\D=141$

So, the value of discriminant for y is 141.
