By factor theorem, $(-4)^{2}-(-4)-(2 k-2)=0$ $16+4-2(k-1)=0$ $2(k-1)=20$ $k=11$ If the two roots of the equation $x^{3}-x^{2}-5 x+5=0$ are $\sqrt{5}$ and $-\sqrt{5}$, then the third root is A. $1$ B. $-1$ C. $2$ D. $-2$ Explanation The two roots of the equation $x^{3}-x^{2}-5 x+5=0$ are $\sqrt{5}$ and $-\sqrt{5}$. Let the third root be $k$. $\therefore \quad x^{3}-x^{2}-5 x+5=\left(x-\sqrt{5}\right)\left(x+\sqrt{5}\right)\left(x-k\right)$. $\therefore\quad \sqrt{5}\times \left(-\sqrt{5} \right)\times (-k)=5$ $\quad\quad 5k=5$ $\quad\quad k=1$ What should be subtracted to the polynomial $x^{2}-16 x+30$, so that $x-15$ is the factor of the resulting polynomial? A. $30$ B. $14$ C. $15$ D. $16$ Explanation Let $f(x) = x^{2}-16 x+30$. When $f(x)$ is divided by $x-15$, The remainder = $f(15) = (15)^{2}-16 (15)+30 = 15(15 - 16 + 2) = 15$ Hence, $15$ should be subtracted.
