Question

(-3x^3-3x^2+2x-4) / (x-1/3). Determine the remainder for the following using the remainder theorm. The remainder is different from 0 and is equal to??

Answer 1

The remainder theorem is

If P(x) is divided by x-k, then the remainder r is r = P(k)

Answer 2

In this case, P(x) = -3x^3-3x^2+2x-4 and k = 1/3

Answer 3

ok so how would i work this. I've worked it once and it was wrong.

Answer 4

P(x) = -3x^3-3x^2+2x-4

P(1/3) = -3(1/3)^3-3(1/3)^2+2(1/3)-4

Answer 5

ok one second let me work it

Answer 6

ok

Answer 7

i got -34/9

Answer 8

would that be the end result?

Answer 9

-34/9 is the remainder, so you are correct

i want to ask another one u going to be here a second? did u check my work on that one?

Answer 13

yes, -34/9 is the correct answer

Answer 14

It says to type it in as a simplifed fraction so would that be simplifed

Answer 15

?

Answer 16

yes it's fully simplified, it's the final answer
