Find the remainder when a polynomial p(x)=r³-6r² + 2x-4 is divided by (3x-1).​

Answers 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, g(x)=3x−1. To apply Remainder theorem, (3x−1) should be converted to (x−a) form.

∴3x−1=

here, g(x)=3x-1. To apply remainder theorem, (3x-1) should be converted to (x-a) form

3x-1= 1 by 3 (3x-1) = x- 1 by 3

g(x) =(x-1 by 3)

by remainder theorem,

r(x) = p(a) =p(1 by 3)

p(x)=x3 - 6x2 + 2x - 4 =p(1 by 3)

= (1 by 3)3 - 6(1 by 3)2 + 2(1 by 3 ) - 4

= 1 by 27 - 6 by 9 + 2 by 3 - 4

= 1-18+18-108 by 27

= -107 by 27

Therefore, the remainder is -107 by 27
