Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
f(x)=5x^2+9x-2
Remainder theorem states that when f(x) is divided by x-a then the remainder can be calculated by calculating f(a).
Now Using the remainder theorem to divide 5x^2+9x-2 by x+3 to find the remainder:
f(x)=5x^2+9x-2
f(-3) = 5(-3)^2 +9(-3) -2
=5(9) - 27 -2
= 45-29
= 16 !
I'm not sure what this question means exactly, maybe the principals goal is unrealistic?
For the first question, the answer is A (<em>p</em> = 27)
For the second one, I think that the answer is C
Expand the following:
(x - 6) (3 x^2 + 10 x - 1)
Hint: | Multiply out (x - 6) (3 x^2 + 10 x - 1).
| | | | x | - | 6
| | 3 x^2 | + | 10 x | - | 1
| | | | -x | + | 6
| | 10 x^2 | - | 60 x | + | 0
3 x^3 | - | 18 x^2 | + | 0 x | + | 0
3 x^3 | - | 8 x^2 | - | 61 x | + | 6:
Answer: 3 x^3 - 8 x^2 - 61 x + 6 Thus B:
