Consider the function f(x)=x3−x2−48x+150. What is the remainder if f(x) is divided by (x−5)? Do not include (x−5) in your answer.

Respuesta :

Answer:

remainder = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

If f(x) is divided by (x - h) then the remainder is f(h)

Here the divisor is (x - 5) , with h = 5 , then

f(5) = 5³ - 5² - 48(5) + 150

      = 125 - 25 - 240 + 150

      = 100 - 240 + 150

       = - 140 + 150

       = 10

The remainder after division is 10
