Find a polynomial of degree three that when divided by x - 2 has a remainder of 3. You will really have to think on this one. Hint: Work backwards! Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
There exists an infinite number of polynomial functions of degree 3 that are evenly divisible by . Just select your own values for and , and then multiply the three binomials . Once you have your polynomial that IS divisible by , add to it to get a polynomial that has a remainder of 3 when divided by . Hint: will work out nicely.
