If f(x) = (x +1)g(x) − 2 and g(3) = 4  Find the remainder if f(x) divided by   (x + 1)(x − 3)
Iff(x)=(x+1)g(x)2andg(3)=4Findtheremainderiff(x)dividedby(x+1)(x3)

Since, f(x) = (x+1)g(x) −2 and g(3) = 4  when f(x) is divided by (x+1),  the remainder, f(−1) = −2 and  f(3) = 4g(3) −2 = 14  Let the quotient be Q(x) and the remainder  be ax+b  when f(x) is divided by (x+1)(x−3)  So, f(x) = (x+1)(x−3)Q(x)+ax+b  thus f(−1) = −a+b = −2 .........(1)  f(3) = 3a+b = 14 .........(2)  Solving equations (1) and (2)  a = 4 and b = 2  ∴ The required remainder = 4x+2 #
