Question 1123993: Please help me solve this question: if x-2 and x-1 are factors of the expression; lx^3+2kx^2+24, find the values of l and k. Answer by greenestamps(13195) (Show Source):
If x-1 and x-2 are factors of the expression, then the expression evaluated at x=1 and at x=2 is equal to 0. That gives you two linear equations in l and k that you can solve to find the values of l and k.
