1 answer

According to the Remainder Theorem, to find \( f(a) \) for a polynomial \( f(x) \), you can divide \( f(x) \) by \( (x - a) \) and the remainder of this division will be equal to \( f(a) \).

In this case, you want to find \( f(2) \). Therefore, you need to divide \( f(x) = 4x^2 - 10x - 3 \) by \( (x - 2) \).

Thus, the correct response is:

\((4x^2 - 10x - 3) \div (x - 2)\)

This division will give you the remainder, which is equal to \( f(2) \).
