Use the remainder theorem to find
P(−3) for =P(x)+2x^3+6x^2+6
.
Specifically, give the quotient and the remainder for the associated division and the value of
P(−3)
.

This means, performing division or SYNTHETIC division to test -3 as a root gives a remainder equal to P at x=-3.


-3    |    2    6    0     6
      |
      |        -6    0    0
      |_______________________________
          2    0    0      6

Remainder is 6.
