Question

Using remainder theorem, find the remainder when:
(x3 − 6x2 + 9x + 3) is divided by (x − 1)

Open in App
Solution

We know:
x-1=0x=1
By the remainder theorem, we know that when f(x) is divided by (x - 1), the remainder is f(1).
Thus, we have:
fx=x3-6x2+9x+3 f1=13-6×12+9×1+3 =1-6+9+3 =7
Hence, the required remainder is 7.
