Q7 of 90 Page 2

Applying the Division Algorithm, check whether the first polynomial is a factor of the second polynomial:

x2 – 3x + 4,2x4 – 11x3 + 29x2 – 30x + 29

Let us divide 2x4 – 11x3 + 29x2 – 30x + 29 by x2 – 3x + 4


The division process is



Here, the remainder is 58x – 115 , therefore x2 – 3x + 4 is not a factor of 2x4 – 11x3 + 29x2 – 30x + 29
