them are the answers i can choose from

Answer 7

Use the remainder theorem

If you divide P(x) by x-k, then the remainder 'r' is

r = P(k)

Answer 9

Sorry, I was solving and not giving the remainder.

Answer 10

do you guys no what the remaidder is ?

Answer 11

Answer 13

-51

Answer 14

It is -51, here's why


x^3 - 6x^2 - 9x + 3

(3)^3 - 6(3)^2 - 9(3) + 3

-51

Answer 15

Now because the remainder is a part of the divisor (basically its what is left over), you can write "remainder -51" as -51/(x-3)

Answer 16

but its not because i got it wrong on my test ..
