What is the remainder of (2x3 − 18x + 5) ÷ (x − 3)? -5 5 2 3
@Peaches15 can you help?
4
x-5=0 solve for x and the substitute x in this 2x^3 − 18x + 5 equation for its value
or you can apply synthetic division
it should be -5
-5 is wrong i got it wrong the last time i tried it
\(\color{blue}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @Nnesha x-5=0 solve for x and the substitute x in this 2x^3 − 18x + 5 equation for its value \(\color{blue}{\text{End of Quote}}\) correction: x-3=0
would it be 3?
ok clarify your equation 2x3 or 2x^3
solve for this x-3=0 then x=3 put value of x in equation you will get answer
sorry its 2x^3
yep so now substitute al x for 3\[\huge\rm 2(3)^3-18(3)+5= ??\]
it's 5
so 2-18+5=-11
lol nah put value of x
you will get 54-54+5=5
no substitute x for 3 just replace x
oh okay i think i get it now
x for 3\[\huge\rm 2(\color{reD}{3})^3-18(\color{reD}{3})+5= ??\]
when you are given like that divided by x-5 or x-3 etc then just put it equal to zero and get value of x put this value in equation you will get your answer
good job Nnesha
or if you want to apply synthetic division then you need to write highest degree to smallest |dw:1438707198108:dw| 0 for 0x^2 it's not in the equation but we still have to write highest degree to smallest x^3,x^2 and then x
