To find the remainder when the polynomial is divided by (x - 2), we will use the Remainder Theorem. This theorem states that the remainder of the division of a polynomial f(x) by (x - a) is given by f(a).
Steps to Find the Remainder:
1.Identify ( a ):
Since we are dividing by (x - 2), we set ( a = 2 ).
2.Evaluate f(2):
3.Calculate each term:
