QUESTION
The polynomial 4x^3 + zx^2 +rx-2, where z and r are
constants, is donated by p(x). It is given that (x+1)
and (x+2) are factors of p(x).
(i) Find the values of of z and r
(ii) When z and r have these values, find the
remainder when p(x) is divided by (x^2+1)
I) ANSWER
EQUATION 1
P(-1)= 4(-1)^3 + z(-1)^2 + r(-1)-2=0
-4+z-r-2=0
z-r-6=0
EQUATION 2
p(-2)= 4(-2)^3+z(-2)^2+r(-2)-2
= -32+4z-2r-2
= 4z-2r-34
4z-2r-34=0
z-r-6=0
4z-2r-34=0
2z-2r-12=0

2z-22= 0
2z=22
z=22/2
z=11
ELIMINATION
11-r-6=0
-r=-11+6
-r=-5
r=5
SUBSTITUTION
(i) Therefore,
z=11 and r=5
II) ANSWER
NVJHV
(i) Therefore, the
remainder is x-13
