Q. 4. The expression A(x−1)3+B(x+3)2+20 is exactly divisible by x+1 and leaves a remainder of 26 when divided by x. Find the value of A and of B. Using these value found, rewrite the expression as a polynomial and factorize it completel
Substitute x=−1: Since the expression is exactly divisible by x+1, the remainder when divided by x+1 is 0. Let's substitute x=−1 into the expression to find A. A(−1−1)3+B(−1+3)2+20=0 A(−2)3+B(2)2+20=0 −8A+4B+20=0
Solve for A in terms of B: Now let's solve for A in terms of B.−8A=−4B−20A=84B+20A=2B+25
Set constant term equal to 26: Next, since the expression leaves a remainder of 26 when divided by x, the constant term must be 26. Let's set the constant term equal to 26 and solve for B. A(−1)3+B(3)2+20=26 −A+9B+20=26 −A=26−9B−20 −A=6−9B
Substitute A into equation: Substitute A from the second step into this equation.2B+25=6−9BB+5=12−18B19B=7B=197
Solve for B: Now substitute B back into the equation for A.A=2B+25A=(197)/2+25A=387+3895A=38102A=617
Substitute B into A equation: Now that we have A and B, let's rewrite the expression.A(x−1)3+B(x+3)2+20(617)(x−1)3+(197)(x+3)2+20
Rewrite the expression: Finally, let's factorize the polynomial completely. Since we don't have a common factor for all terms, we can't factorize it further without expanding the expression. However, the question asked for the values of A and B, which we have found.
