उत्तर
p(x1) = 2x3 + ax2 + 4x – 12
When it is divided by x – 3,
p(3) = 2(3)3 + a(3)2 + 4(3) – 12
= 54 + 9a + 12 – 12
= 54 + 9a ...(R1)
p(x2) = x3 + x2 – 2x + a
When it is divided by x – 3,
p(3) = 33 + 32 – 2(3) + a
= 27 + 9 – 6 + a
= 30 + a ...(R2)
The given remainders are same (R1 = R2)
∴ 54 + 9a = 30 + a
9a – a = 30 – 54
8a = – 24
∴ a = `(– 24)/8`
= – 3
Consider R2,
Remainder = 30 – 3
= 27
