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

Answer 1

To apply the remainder theorem, we need to find f(7/3) since the divisor is x - 7/3.

We substitute x = 7/3 into f(x) = 9x^2 - 50:
f(7/3) = 9(7/3)^2 - 50
= 9(49/9) - 50
= 49 - 50
= -1

So, the remainder is -1.
