Answer & Analysis

Answer

B

Analysis

To find the remainder when the polynomial is divided by (x - 1), we can use the Remainder Theorem. This theorem states that the remainder of the division of a polynomial p(x) by (x - a) is equal to p(a). In this case, since we are dividing by (x - 1), we will evaluate p(1).

Steps to Find the Remainder:

1.Identify ( a ):

Since we are dividing by (x - 1), we set ( a = 1 ).

2.Evaluate p(1):
