If `(x+2) and (x-1) ` are factors of `(x^3+10x^2+mx+n)` thenA. `m=5,n=-3`B. `m=7,n=-18`C. `m=17,n=-8`D. `m=23,n=-19`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
Let ` (x)=x^3+10x^2+mx+n`. Then, `p(-2)=0 and p(1)=0`.
`(-2)^3+10xx (-2)^2+mxx (-2)+n=0rArr n-2m=32`
`(1)^3+10xx (1)62+m xx 1 +n=0rArr n+m=-11......(i)`
`therefore m=7and n=-18 ..........(ii)`
