The Remainder Theorem Given P(x) = x3 - 4x2 + 5x + 1, determine the remainder when P(x) is divided by x - 1. -1 1 -4 5 1 The remainder is 3. -1 -2 3 1 -3 2 3 NOTE: P(1) gives the same answer as the remainder using synthetic division. Using f(x) = x3 - 4x2 + 5x + 1, determine P(1): P(1) = (1)3 - 4(1)2 + 5(1) + 1 = 1 - 4 + 5 + 1 = 3 Therefore P(1) is equal to the remainder. In other words, when the polynomial x3 - 4x2 + 5x + 1 is divided by x - 1, the remainder is P (1).
Remainder Theorem: When a polynomial P(x) is divided by x - a, the remainder is P(a).[think x - a, then x = a] Determine the remainder when x3 - 4x2 + 5x - 1 is divided by: a)x - 2 b)x + 1 Calculate P(-1) P(-1) = (-1)3 - 4(-1)2 + 5(-1) - 1 = -1 - 4 - 5 - 1 = -11 Calculate P(2) P(2) = (2)3 - 4(2)2 + 5(2) - 1 = 8 - 16 + 10 - 1 = 1 The remainder is -11. The remainder is 1. Point (-1, -11) is on the graph of of f(x)= x3- 4x2 + 5x - 1 Point (2, 1) is on the graph of of f(x)= x3- 4x2 + 5x - 1
Applications When is divided by the remainder is 30. Determine the value of k.
Problem Solving When the polynomial 3x3 + ax2 + bx -9 is divided by x - 2 , the remainder is -5. When the polynomial is divided by x + 1, the remainder is -16. What are the values of a and b?
