Given the following polynomial function, $P(x)$, evaluated at $x = -2$,
$P(x) = -3x^2 + 7x - 5$
$P(-2) = -3(-2)^2 + 7(-2) - 5 =$
$-3(4) + 7(-2) - 5 =$
$-12 - 14 - 5 =$
$-31$

Step 1

Step 2: Recall the Remainder Theorem. The Remainder Theorem states that if a polynomial $P(x)$ is divided by a linear divisor $(x - c)$, then the remainder is $P(c)$. Step 3: In this problem, the divisor is $(x + 2)$. We can rewrite $(x + 2)$ as $(x - Show more…
