Let us write the remainder, if the polynomial x3 + 4x2 + 4x – 3 is divided by x.
If the polynomial x3 + 4x2 + 4x – 3 is divided by x, we need to find the remainder.
Let P(x) = x3 + 4x2 + 4x – 3 …(i)
Next, we need to find the zero of the linear polynomial, x.
To find zero, equate x to 0.
⇒ x = 0
So, when P(x) is divided by x, it leaves a remainder P(0).
Replace x by 0 in equation (i), we get
P(0) = (0)3 + 4(0)2 + 4(0) – 3
⇒ P(0) = 0 + 0 + 0 – 3
⇒ P(0) = -3
⇒ Required remainder = -3
Thus, -3 is the answer.
