Show all working explaining detailly each step Answer must be typewritten with a computer keyboard! Answer Q9a below A polynomial function f(x) = ax3 - bx2 -2x + 3 is exactly divisible by 2x2 - x - 3. Find the values of a and b. Hence find the remainder when f(x) divides (x+2)
Using the techniques from Section 3.2, sketch the graph of the polynomial function. Specify the x- and y-intercepts, and also specify the zeros of P(x). P(x) = −(x + 1)2(x − 1)3(x − 2)   Show all Work PLEASE!!
