Q. Use the remainder theorem to find P(3)P(3) for P(x)=2x34x22x+9P(x)=2x^{3}-4x^{2}-2x+9. Specifically, give the quotient and the remainder for the associated division and the value of P(3)P(3). Quotient : \square Remainder ==\square \square P(3)=P(3)= \square
  1. Apply Remainder Theorem: Step 11: Apply the remainder theorem to find P(3)P(3). The remainder theorem states that the remainder of the division of a polynomial P(x)P(x) by (xc)(x - c) is P(c)P(c). Here, c=3c = 3. Calculate P(3)=2(3)34(3)22(3)+9P(3) = 2(3)^3 - 4(3)^2 - 2(3) + 9. = 2(27)4(9)6+92(27) - 4(9) - 6 + 9 = 54366+954 - 36 - 6 + 9 = 2121
  2. Perform Synthetic Division: Step 22: Perform synthetic division to find the quotient and remainder.\newlineDivide P(x)P(x) by (x3)(x - 3) using synthetic division.\newlineCoefficients of P(x)P(x): 2,4,2,92, -4, -2, 9\newlineUsing 33 as the synthetic divisor:\newline\begin{array}{cccc}\(\newline2 & | & 6 & | & 6 & | & 12 (\newline\)\hline\newline2 & | & 2 & | & 4 & | & 21\newline\end{array}\)\newlineQuotient: 2x2+2x+42x^2 + 2x + 4\newlineRemainder: 2121
