ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS

1. (a) One of the zeros of the polynomial P( x) = 6 x3 + 13x 2 − 4 is a negative integer.
Find this zero and hence, factorise P( x) completely. [4 marks]
(b) When the polynomial kx3 + hx 2 + 3x − 1 is divided by x − 2 , the remainder is
three times that obtained when it is divided by x − 1 . Find the relation between
k and h. If the remainder is 25 when the polynomial is divided by x + 2 , find
the values of k and h. [8 marks]
