    				| 1. | If `ax^(3)-5x^(2)+x+` p is divisible by `x^(2)-3x+2`, then find the values of a and p .A. a = 2 , p = 2B. a = 2 , p = 3C. a = 1 , p = 3D. a = 1 , p = 2 | 
| Answer» Correct Answer - A Let `f(x)=ax^(3)-5x^(2)+x+p` Given , `f(x)` is divisible `x^(2)-3x+2`,i.e., `rArrf(x)` is divisible by `(x-1)and(x-2)` `f(1)=0andf(2)=0rArra+p-4=0` `rArra+p=4` (1) `8a+p=18=0rArr8a+p=18` (2) On solving Eqs. (1) and (2) , we get a = p = 2 . | |
