The remainder when p(y) = y³ - 4y² - 2y + 6 is divided by g(y) = 1 - 3/4y is
Added by Rebecca P.
Step 1
Step 1: We will use the Remainder Theorem, which states that if a polynomial p(y) is divided by a linear divisor g(y) = y - k, then the remainder is p(k). Show more…

P(x) is a polynomial. Here are a few values of P(x). P(-2) = 1 P(-1) = 3 P(1) = 0 P(2) = 4 What is the remainder when P(x) is divided by (x - 1)? What is the remainder when P(x) is divided by (x + 2)?

Without dividing out, find the remainder when $2 x^{2}-3 x+4$ is divided by $(x-2)$By the remainder theorem, the remainder is given by $a p^{2}+b p+c$, where $a=2, b=-3, c=4$ and $p=2$. Hence the remainder is: $$ 2(2)^{2}+(-3)(2)+4=8-6+4=6 $$
