Question Number 94818 by student work last updated on 21/May/20

 find such a polynomial if is divided by (x−2) then the   remainder is 5, if it isdivided by (x−3) the remainder  is 9, if it is divided by (x−4) the remainder is 13, if   divide by (x−10) and the remaider becomes 37 and  if (x−(3/4)) divided by the remainder becomes zero?

4x−3 is correct, but not the only one  solution, i think.  i′ll post my solution later.

$$\mathrm{4}{x}−\mathrm{3}\:{is}\:{correct},\:{but}\:{not}\:{the}\:{only}\:{one} \\ $$$${solution},\:{i}\:{think}. \\ $$$${i}'{ll}\:{post}\:{my}\:{solution}\:{later}. \\ $$

Yes sir it′s linear answer, and  if I′ve done correct calculation  quadratic is not possible.Now I′m  tryingfor cubic solution...

say the polynomial searched is f(x).  f(x) can be divided by (x−(3/4)) without  remainder, therefore  f(x)=g(x)(x−(3/4))  with g(x) being an other polynomial.    when f(x) is divided by (x−2) we get  remainder 5, that means  f(x)=p(x)(x−2)+5, i.e. f(2)=5,  f(2)=g(2)(2−(3/4))=5 ⇒g(2)=4  similarly  f(3)=g(3)(3−(3/4))=9 ⇒g(3)=4  f(4)=g(4)(4−(3/4))=13 ⇒g(4)=4  f(10)=g(10)(10−(3/4))=37 ⇒g(10)=4  that means  g(x)=k(x)(x−2)(x−3)(x−4)(x−10)+4  with k(x) being any polynomial.  ⇒f(x)=g(x)(x−(3/4))  ⇒f(x)=[k(x)(x−2)(x−3)(x−4)(x−10)+4](x−(3/4))  or  ⇒f(x)=[c(x)(x−2)(x−3)(x−4)(x−10)+1](4x−3)  with c(x) being any polynomial  (including any constant)
