b = −1 −2
f =0
Therefore, the respective values of a and b are –3 3
and –1. Hence, remainder is 0.
p=r
= ( x + 2 )( x − 2 ) ( x 2 + 3)
Hence, this is the answer. 14. x + y + z = 1, xy + yz + zx = –1 and xyz = –1
x3 + y3 + z 3 − 3xyz
12. In order to factorize 𝑥 2 + 3√3𝑥 + 6, we have to
find two numbers p and q such that = ( x + y + z )( x 2 + y 2 + z 2 − xy − yz − zx)
p + q = 3 3 and pq = 6 x3 + y3 + z − 3(−1) = 1( x2 + y 2 + z 2 ) − (−1)
Clearly, 2 3 + 3 = 3 3 and 2 3 3 = 6 x3 + y 3 + z + 3 = x 2 + y 2 + z 2 + 1
So, we write the middle term 3 3x as x3 + y 3 + z + 2 = x 2 + y 2 + z 2
2 3 x + 3 x , so that x 2 + 3 3 x + 6 ( x + y + z )2 = x 2 + y 2 + z 2 + 2 zy + 2 yz + xz
= x2 + 2 3x + 3x + 6 12 = x2 + y 2 + z 2 + 2(−1)
= ( x 2 + 2 3x ) + ( 3x + 6 ) x2 + y 2 + z 2 = 1 + 2
= ( x 2 + 2 3x ) + ( 3x + 2 3 3 ) x2 + y 2 + z 2 = 3
x3 + y 3 + z 3 + 2 = 3
= x( x + 2 3) + 3 ( x + 2 3)
x3 + y 3 + z 3 = 1
= ( x + 2 3 )( x + 3 )
15. x3 + 2x2 – 5ax – 7 leaves a remainder A, when
1 divided by x + 1.
13. (x–2) and x − are the factors of
2
So, plugging in x = –1 in the above polynomial,
p( x) = px 2 5x + r
we can find remainder A.
Let x – 2 = 0, then x = 2
f (2) = p(2)2 + 5x×2+r = 4p +10+r=4p+r+10 A = – 1 + 2 + 5a – 7 = 5a – 6
x – 2 is a factor of f (x) x3 + 2x2 – 5ax – 7 leaves a remainder B, when
x – 2 is a factor of f (x) Remainder = 0 divided by x – 2.
4p + r + 10 = 0 4p + r = – 10 ....(i)
1 1 So, plugging in x = 2 in the above polynomial, we
Again let x − = 0 , then x =
2 2 can find remainder A.
