<h3>
Answer: -2</h3>
===============================================
Explanation:
We use the remainder theorem. This is the idea where if we divide P(x) over (x-k), then the remainder is P(k).
Comparing x+1 to x-k shows that k = -1
It might help to rewrite x+1 as x-(-1) to get it into the form x-k better.
Plug this k value into the function
f(x) = 2x^6 + 3x^5 - 1
f(-1) = 2(-1)^2 + 3(-1)^5 - 1
f(-1) = 2(1) + 3(-1) - 1
f(-1) = 2 - 3 - 1
f(-1) = -1 - 1
f(-1) =-2
The remainder is -2
We can confirm this through synthetic division or polynomial long division.
