Question

Given that f(x)=9x^2-50, apply the raminder theorem to find the remainder of (9x^2-50) divided by (x-7/3)

1. -203/3
2. -1
3. -50
4. -29

Answer 1

To apply the remainder theorem, we need to substitute the value of (x-7/3) into the function f(x) and find the result.

f(x) = 9x^2 - 50
f(7/3) = 9(7/3)^2 - 50
= 9(49/9) - 50
= (49) - 50
= -1

Therefore, the remainder of (9x^2 - 50) divided by (x - 7/3) is -1.

The correct option is 2. -1.
