Question
Use the Remainder Theorem to find $P(c)$.$$P(x)=6 x^{3}-x^{2}+4 x, c=-3$$
Step 1
Write the coefficients of the polynomial $P(x)$ in a row: $6$, $-1$, $4$, and $0$ (since there is no constant term). Then write $c=-3$ to the left of the bar. \[ \begin{{array}}{{r|rrrr}} -3 & 6 & -1 & 4 & 0 \\ \end{{array}} \] Show more…
