Question

Using remainder theorem, find the remainder when:
(x3 − 7x2 + 6x + 4) is divided by (x − 6)

Open in App
Solution

We have:
x-6=0x=6
By the remainder theorem, we know that when f(x) is divided by (x - 6), the remainder is f(6).
Thus, we have:
fx=x3-7x2+6x+4f6=63-7×62+6×6+4 =216-252+36+4 =4
​Hence, the required remainder is 4.
