The question states that p(3)=−2, So it must be true that.. (insert the true equation here)
2=p(3)=(3+k)q(3)+r ?
Good, Now we can plug in all the possible answers. If the answer is A, B, or C, r will be 0, while if the answer is D, r will be −2. A. −2=p(3)=(3+(−5))q(3)+0 − 2=(3−5)q(3) −2=(−2)q(3) This could be true but, Only if what?
Apologies I messed up a bit A. −2=p(3)=(3+(−5))q(3)+0 -2=(3−5)q(3) −2=(−2)q(3)
its okay but it would be true if q(3)=-2
Try that again
-1?
No, But close
oh wait i see its 1
Yes
B. −2=p(3)=(3+(−2))q(3)+0 −2=(3−2)q(3) −2=(−1)q(3) This could be true if
q(3)=.2
.2?
mb i just meant 2
Mhm, Now this might get a little tricky if you don't do the math right. C. −2=p(3)=(3+2)q(3)+0 −2=(5)q(3) This would be true if?
q(3)= 2/5 i did it im just making sure its right and trying to learn to do it more
I see, You keep confusing your positives with negatives lol
Try it again and take your time, No rush
q(3)= −2/5
Great, D. −2=p(3)=(3+(−3))q(3)+(−2) −2=(3−3)q(3)+(−2) −2=(0)q(3)+(−2) This will always be true no matter what q(3) is
Of the answer choices the only one that is true about p(x) is D when the remainder when p(x) is divided by x−3 is -2 so then D is correct one?
It is
That's it right?
ima post another q
