Question

Part 1: Determine whether 2 is a zero of the polynomial P(x) = 2x3 – 5x2 + 4x – 6 by using the Remainder Theorem. Show your work. (4 points)

Part 2: Explain how the Remainder Theorem is useful in finding the zeros of a polynomial function. (4 points)

Answer 1

solve for p(2) for the part one, if p(2)=0 then, 2 is a factor but if it is not equal to zero, then 2 is not a factor(the output will be the remainder).

Answer 2

?

Answer 3

\(P(2)=2(2)^3-5(2)^2+4(2)-6=\)

Answer 4

o ok

Answer 5

brb.. need to eat my dinner XD

Answer 6

p(2)=2(4) -5 (2) +4 (2) -6
p(2)= 8 -10 +8 -6
p(2)= 0

Answer 7

that means 2 is one of zero. share me 2 points hehehe

Answer 8

ok
