Find the remainder when p(x) = 3x² + (0)x + (7) is divided by (x - 3).
Explanation
Explanation
By the Remainder Theorem, the remainder when p(x) is divided by (x - 3) equals p(3). p(3) = 3(3)² + (0)(3) + (7) = 27 + 0 + 7 = 34.
PRO TIP
Re-check your working by substituting the answer back into the original question.
