The value of f(3) for the polynomial f(x)=x3+x2-5x+3 is 24. What does this mean in terms of polynomial division? a)If you divide f(x)=x3+x2-5x+3 by (x-3), then the remainder is 24. b)If you divide f(x)=x3+x2-5x+3 by (x+3), then the remainder is 24. c)You cannot divide f(x)=x3+x2-5x+3 by (x+3) d)If you divide (x-3) by f(x)=x3+x2-5x+3, then the remainder is 24.
