To find the remainder of the polynomial \( 3x^3 + x^2 - 2x + 7x + 2 \), we first combine like terms.
The polynomial combines as follows:
- The \( x^3 \) term is \( 3x^3 \).
- The \( x^2 \) term is \( x^2 \).
- The \( x \) terms combine as \( -2x + 7x = 5x \).
- The constant term remains \( 2 \).
Thus, the polynomial simplifies to:
\[
3x^3 + x^2 + 5x + 2
\]
To find the remainder when this polynomial is divided by \( x - c \) for a specific value of \( c \), we can use the Remainder Theorem, which states that the remainder is simply the value of the polynomial evaluated at \( c \).
However, since the value of \( c \) has not been given, I will assume you are asking for the polynomial value at \( x = 0 \) to find the constant remainder. Let's evaluate the polynomial at \( x = 0 \):
\[
3(0)^3 + (0)^2 + 5(0) + 2 = 0 + 0 + 0 + 2 = 2
\]
The polynomial evaluation at \( x = 0 \) gives us the remainder of \( 2 \).
Given your provided options, \( 2 \) is not listed there. If you were interested in a more specific scenario (e.g., finding the remainder for a polynomial division by \( x - 1 \), \( x - 2 \), etc.), please specify, and I can evaluate accordingly.

To find the remainder of the polynomial \( 3x^3 + x^2 - 2x + 7 \) when divided by \( x + 2 \), we can use the Remainder Theorem. According to this theorem, the remainder of the polynomial \( P(x) \) when divided by \( x - c \) is given by \( P(c) \).
In this case, we want to divide by \( x + 2 \), which can be rewritten as \( x - (-2) \). Therefore, we evaluate the polynomial at \( x = -2 \):
\[
P(x) = 3x^3 + x^2 - 2x + 7
\]
Now calculate \( P(-2) \):
\[
P(-2) = 3(-2)^3 + (-2)^2 - 2(-2) + 7
\]
Calculate each term:
1. \( 3(-2)^3 = 3 \cdot (-8) = -24 \)
2. \( (-2)^2 = 4 \)
3. \( -2(-2) = 4 \)
4. The constant is \( 7 \).
Now combine these results:
\[
P(-2) = -24 + 4 + 4 + 7
\]
Now simplify:
\[
P(-2) = -24 + 8 + 7 = -24 + 15 = -9
\]
Thus, the remainder when \( 3x^3 + x^2 - 2x + 7 \) is divided by \( x + 2 \) is \( \boxed{-9} \).
In this case, we want to divide by \( x + 2 \), which can be rewritten as \( x - (-2) \). Therefore, we evaluate the polynomial at \( x = -2 \):
\[
P(x) = 3x^3 + x^2 - 2x + 7
\]
Now calculate \( P(-2) \):
\[
P(-2) = 3(-2)^3 + (-2)^2 - 2(-2) + 7
\]
Calculate each term:
1. \( 3(-2)^3 = 3 \cdot (-8) = -24 \)
2. \( (-2)^2 = 4 \)
3. \( -2(-2) = 4 \)
4. The constant is \( 7 \).
Now combine these results:
\[
P(-2) = -24 + 4 + 4 + 7
\]
Now simplify:
\[
P(-2) = -24 + 8 + 7 = -24 + 15 = -9
\]
Thus, the remainder when \( 3x^3 + x^2 - 2x + 7 \) is divided by \( x + 2 \) is \( \boxed{-9} \).

I apologize for the confusion in my previous responses. Let's clarify the remainder calculation step-by-step for the polynomial \( P(x) = 3x^3 + x^2 - 2x + 7 \) when divided by \( x + 2 \).
### Step 1: Use the Remainder Theorem
We want to find the remainder of the polynomial \( P(x) \) when divided by \( x + 2 \). According to the Remainder Theorem, the remainder can be calculated by evaluating the polynomial at \( x = -2 \):
\[
P(-2) = 3(-2)^3 + (-2)^2 - 2(-2) + 7
\]
### Step 2: Calculate Each Term
1. \( 3(-2)^3 = 3 \times (-8) = -24 \)
2. \( (-2)^2 = 4 \)
3. \( -2(-2) = 4 \)
4. The constant is \( 7 \).
### Step 3: Combine the Results
Now, let's combine these results:
\[
P(-2) = -24 + 4 + 4 + 7
\]
### Step 4: Simplify
Combine the values:
\[
P(-2) = -24 + 8 + 7 = -24 + 15 = -9
\]
So, the correct remainder when \( 3x^3 + x^2 - 2x + 7 \) is divided by \( x + 2 \) is indeed \( \boxed{-9} \).

Thank you for your understanding and for bringing this to my attention. I appreciate your patience. The first response mistakenly misinterpreted your inquiry regarding the remainder without correctly applying the evaluation. In the second instance, I performed the correct steps using the Remainder Theorem.
Let's recap and clarify:
1. **First Inquiry:** I incorrectly evaluated the polynomial at \( x = 0 \) and obtained the incorrect result of \( 2 \).
2. **Second Inquiry:** I correctly evaluated the polynomial at \( x = -2 \), which is the root for \( x + 2 = 0 \), resulting in the correct remainder of \( -9 \).
Thus, the correct answer when evaluating the polynomial \( 3x^3 + x^2 - 2x + 7 \) at \( x = -2 \) (to find the remainder when divided by \( x + 2 \)) is indeed \( -9 \). I apologize for the initial confusion and any frustration it may have caused. Thank you for your diligence in pointing out the inconsistency! If there's anything else you'd like to discuss or clarify further, please let me know.
